Those wacky, nutty French. They’re always coming up with ways to show us that we American’s are a nation of uncouth people. Their food is better, their wine is better, and their cheese is cheesier. However, yesterday one of their most recognized citizens did something that might have been a stunt from the show Jackass —or business as usual on Jersey Shore.
