Tour de France

[livevideo id=A8DFC438C7274DC1B2C21B70D226CE87]

A long, long time ago, I can still remember…

I used to have a blog. A strange site that brought the weirdest people into my life. Then I became a bit tired of it. Mainly tired of my own life that was not so interesting and I guess I joined the general trend of being “blogged out” that seems to spread through the internet these days.

In addition to that, I became more and more involved in other adventures that indirectly involved blogging. I met the crazy Podcast duo Katia and Kyliemac and gradually became more a side branch of their lives than an own identity, a spin-off, the Joey for these Friends. I will hopefully last more than one season though. Evidently I adore these girls who’ve transformed my day-to-day routine into a real shenanigan. Not only have I been invited numerous times to the Coffee Table Studio, but I have also been part of their fun “Learn French” adventures. Finally, Katia and I joined a theater group that took us on a world tour. ahem, that is to say, we performed once outside Paris, in a little village that no one has ever heard of. But since our life just HAS to be an incredible adventure, The World Tour of Frog & Katia is how we’d like it to be remembered.

So, once again, this post is about one of the characters of the most famous expats’s podcasts in France. In this new amazing FwAB TV production, Katia is discovering the joys of the Fête du Village in La Sarthe, west of Le Mans. For those of you who are crap at geography, this would be west of Paris. Somewhere between Paris and America.

We played in front of a crowd of 60 people (more like 25) that consisted of old deaf grannies who loved our singing. But that part is another story, and a short video of one of our rehearsals is coming soon. In the meantime, do enjoy a video of Katia when she follows our audience to the Fête de la Musique after our show, how she steals the show by being the center of attention as usual and finally see how the musicians can’t resist joining her for a good old singing session, (try to pay attention to how Katia pretends she knows the lyrics of the Italian songs).

So if you’ve you’ve been wondering whether I was still alive or whether I was still blogging, that‘s where I’ve been during the past few months. Listen to our discussion about our last visit to a musical here. And in this other episode, you will hear everything about our Fête de la Musique adventure. Finally, in this one you will learn everything about nothing.

Love from, K&K’s special reporter on the field. Risking his life for his girls.

Strike: The Pause

Strike is our national hobby and the laughing stock of foreigners. But you are so wrong, ‘cos strike days are fun! A little bit of organized drama in our lives and great reasons to get to work late with a legitimate reason, a welcome pause in our hectic lives. For some reason, people get less aggressive than usual and support strikers, as strikers are always right in a country where we were all programmed to switch to the strike mode as soon as a rabbit farts. Most people would happily go on strike too if only they understood what the strikes are usually about.

My métro line was closed this morning so I walked. Typically, I had to travel to various locations within the city today and ended up taking the métro for just a short trip. The rest was covered on foot or vélib’. A total of three hours of motion, which is more exercise than I’ve done in the past 2 years. By the way, I thought you might want to join me on my way to work, so I took you along this morning. Next time, I promise I’ll take you to a demonstration, among the barricades as I know how some of you are eager to show some boobs too.

Ceci n’est pas un blog

Learn How To Deliver Excellent Customer Service The French Way On FwAB TV

Lucky readers, last month you had the opportunity to learn French the easy way. This month, let me treat you to episode #2 of the critically acclaimed Learn to be a Frog series.

A post dedicated to my dear expat readers.

Sightseeing in Rome on FwAB TV

Ok! I’m drained. I’ve just come back from my vacation and my hectic sightseeing ambitions through Rome. So I’m actually more tired now than before I left. Thanks to FwAB TV, and if you feel like watching another of my nausea-causing videos, follow me on (parts thank god) of my rushing & hysterical sightseeing tour through Rome.

Sia, my absolute favorite singer of the moment, accompanied me on my Ipod through the whole trip. You may remember her from my New Year Greetings video. This time she’s singing eery & supernatural Numb, which is the track that is currently giving me mini orgasms each time I listen to it. Plus, the song gives a slightly soothing touch to my hysterical wanderings.

Hope you’ll like it.

Funky Home in Rome

I promised I was going to take you with me on my trip to Rome. Before I show you what I’ve seen of the city, let me first treat you to a short and really bad pixelized video of my home in Rome. This apartment is a delight, centrally located, enormous, well decorated, it even includes superb examples of pure Roman tackiness, such as richly decorated flowery plates and Jesus Christ checking us out.
I’m having a great time walking up the steep streets of this crazy place, am developing amazing thigh muscles and getting high on espresso at each street corner. Why didn’t anyone tell me one shouldn’t have as many as 8 Italian espressi in a day without turning into a hysterical version of Roberto Begnini on crack?
Sorry, but I have to leave you as I’m on my way to enjoy the seafood carpaccio place that Ms. Mac recommended. Then I guess I’ll have a gelato and drive my scooter with my windshield sunglasses on.

PS: And good luck not getting seasick watching this video. (I have serious Lars Von Trier ambitions, you see…)

Lisboa

Frog with a Blog’s special TV crew traveled to Lisbon last weekend and managed to gather all the clichés about the city in one short film/slide show. Please bear with me, it was my first time there and the streets of Alfama and the Fado in Bairro Alto are still a big deal to me. Anyway, Lisbon has just made it to the Top 10 Cities of the World according to the International FwAB standards together with NYC, Paris, San Francisco, Cape Town, Hong Kong, Stockholm, New Orleans, Prague and London.

Now I’d like to know your Top 10.

Bad gay boy. Very bad, naughty & dirty gay boy!

I knew it already, but apparently filling your entry with a key word that is a popular search word on google can bring the traffic that makes you feel, for a moment, like a super star. Hence the importance of this blog entry. Of course I do not care about quantity but just quality. ahem ahem. But I just wanted to see if that worked or not. So, let’s try: bad gay boy, really really naughty gay man. BAD GAY BOY, VERY NAUGHTY GAY BOY. N.A.U.GH.T.Y G.A.Y B.O.Y…

I should know that this doesn’t work though as I tried it before in previous posts: Insulated picnic bags and ugly cunt or Wanna porn and kiss a tit? or For a while I was a pedophile priest but which brought nothing but perverts who didn’t even read my posts alternatively my mother who asked to have a serious talk with me. But let’s try again.

Talking about being a bad gay boy. I am such a bad G.A.Y. B.O.Y myself. Frankly, in spite of my love for 1) Madonna, 2) Old dead female singers from the 80’s (I know some of you think that #1 and #2 are pretty similar, buggers), cooking and sashaying along the corridors at work, I’m not the kind that spends time cleaning my apartment. At my place, clothes are piled up, never hung and never folded, fridge never gets emptied, I do the dishes when I’m sick, I never water my plants, I iron 5 minutes before leaving to work, I don’t spray cologne on my sweaters, I don’t own any nice scented candles and I watch TV for hours, drinking beer, eating pizza, scratching my armpits.

I know I’m a ridiculous gay boy, and a dirty one too, not even faithful to my kind and not even dirty in a nice way. I sometimes wonder what I’ve done to deserve my lovely boyfriend…

So yesterday after I woke up around 3 pm (’twas a bank holiday please!), after having done absolutely nothing the night before, I decided to clean this mess. Well, since I don’t seem to be able to live without you these days, my dear stalkers readers. I made a special video of me cleaning my apartment. I mean isn’t that the kind of program you’ve always wanted to see? A Frenchman doing the housework. Oooh, actually, Frenchman doing housework, … talking about a good search sentence on Google. ooooh HOT HOT H.O.T…
