Paris subwayIn 1900, the Métropolitan subway (Métro) in Paris opened the first eight stations on its first line running east-west through the centre of the city from Porte de Vincennes to Porte Maillot. Within two months the total number of stations became 18, as more were opened on 6 Aug and 1 Sep1900. Fulgence Bienvenüe was the engineer in charge of construction. The line was built close to the surface using the "cut and cover" method along existing streets. Its Art Nouveau entrances were designed by architect Hector Guimard.With extensions built in the 1930's and 1992, it now extends from La Défense high-rise district in the west to the Château de Vincennes, a medieval castle in the east. Still known as line number 1, it is the busiest route.« |
A little boy sits on Santa's
A little boy sits on Santa's lap.
Santa says, "I bet I know what you want for Christmas," and with his finger he taps the boys nose with every letter he spells "T-O-Y-S."
The little boy thinks a second and says, "No, I have enough toys."
Santa replies once again tapping the boys nose with every letter, "C-A-N-D-Y."
Again the little boy thinks a second and says, "No, I have all kinds of candy."
"Well what would you like for Christmas?" Santa asks.
The little boy replies, tapping Santa on the nose, "P-U-S-S-Y, and don't tell me you don't have any because I can smell it on your finger!"
