.
Notice how the second picture is somehow a hundred times better than the first? What's different about them? I've added one simple item. Can't put your finger on it? Look closely.
Okay, I know it's subtle.
Try looking at this picture below and finding what it has IN COMMON with the second picture.
Still don't see it?
It's a black beret I bought on the street.
It makes all of your Paris pictures automatically "one louder." (It also makes your hand do that for some reason.)
Haha, it's perfect on you! And you're right, it does enhance the quality of the picture (by about a x100)!
ReplyDeleteHope you had a great time in France. Such an awesome place. :D
Oui, Oui, pommes frites!
ReplyDeleteMuch louder, indeed. I shall have to remember that if I find myself in Paris.
ReplyDeleteOoh la la, votre beret, ci c'est tres bon! (It has been years since I used French, so that could be all wrong!)
ReplyDeleteThe beret really does suit you - and you DO look French in it!
I got a good chuckle out of the photos, thanks, as always, for sharing.
: ) P
Jorge,
ReplyDeleteThe second photo (with beret) makes you look exactly like Dom Deluise! WOW what a resemblance.
Vive France Libre!!!
What a smart idea to buy a beret. Now you are perfectly disguised as a french citizen (no offense), nobody will notice you are a "LOST star". Hurray to privacy!
ReplyDeleteNat
Joyeux Fête nationale française!
ReplyDeleteC'est l'anniversaire de la prise de la Bastille.
But enough of French history. Berets are amazing. I think everyone should have one. And oooh, Les Champs Elysees. How posh. I bought my first ever perfume down there!
You are so French! LOL
ReplyDeleteWow, that's awesome! You look very Parisian. :)
ReplyDeleteDangit. I was wrong. I thought you'd added the background tourist to the picture. ;-)
ReplyDeletec'est magnifique!!!
ReplyDeleteThe berets are so obnoxious - I love it! Brings to mind Chevy Chase in European Vacation - why didn't you have yours & Bethany's monogrammed with your names or a US flag?!
ReplyDeleteLovin' your vacation pics - thanks for posting!
hey jorge,
ReplyDeletedid anyone recognise you in paris?
i just watched a french-dubbed episode of Lost here in Montreal... they got the voices all wrong :P
LOL! That is funny!! I thought the beret was too obvious so I was scouring the bell tower of Notre Dame for Quasimodo. ;-)
ReplyDeleteThat beret looks awesome on you! Maybe Hurley can wear it on the show this season sometime. Hope you had fun in France.

ReplyDeleteOoh la la!
ReplyDeleteSomehow, it's so you, Jorge. Thanks for the smile.
ReplyDeletenext you will have to get a baguette and walk around with that!
ReplyDeleteHeh, you look like Dom Deluise in your last Frenchie photo.
ReplyDeleteI think you are a cutie Jorge...but in that second picture you kinda look like a homeless guy : )
ReplyDeleteDo people recognize you in Europe?
Fun pics, and perfect for Bastile Day. Did you get recognized much in France?
ReplyDeleteIt's always good to be like the French when in France.
ReplyDeleteSome wear berets.
Some eat frog legs.
Some taste wines.
I pretend to be neutral but hide from all conflict and call my comrades from across the English Channel to help me out when I'm in trouble.
stereotypes much, everybody?
ReplyDeletec'est magnifique.
ReplyDeleteThe beret is a must.
It's right up there with MICKEY MOUSE EAR HATS at Disney!
Thanks for keeping it real.
Great beret! I hope you swindled the beret vendor and only paid half price. That is the best part of street vendors.
ReplyDeleteHey Jorge,
ReplyDeleteAre you going to Comic-con next week? If so, let me know and stop by the Image Comics booth. I want to give you the drawing I did of you for my blog.
If you are in Paris, you gotta have an black beret!
ReplyDeleteHey Jorge,
ReplyDeleteMy "bff" Mary just told me about your blog yesterday, and I just had to write to tell you three things... (besides the fact that I love your blog!)
1) Where were you when I went to Paris so I could take those "up a notch" kind of pictures?? lol Glad you are loving it there.
2) Thank you for taking the time to do this for us (and your Mom). I blog but it's really harder than it looks to be 'regular.' (I do try to get enough fiber though. hee) seriously though- I totally couldn't get anything done until I had read every single entry of your blog. Thank goodness you use a lot of pics and that I read fast. lol.
3) To paraphrase the line from Jerry Maguire, "You had me at poo juice in the Pooh mug."
Love you, man! :) If you're still in Paris, be sure to hit the Jeu de Pomme musee (better than the Louvre and less touristy-- there, I said it!), and leave some time to hang at Montmartre and at least one sidewalk cafe. Why don't they have the sense to put our chairs facing the sidewalk here, too? We're not fooling anyone pretending we're not outside people watching, are we?
A Bientot!
Tara
I am so jealous! That beret is totally hot! LOL...looks like you are having blast!
ReplyDeleteAnd also the hand gesture--can't forget the hand gesture.
ReplyDeleteJorge!!! There are some rumors spreading about your future in "Lost" and something about a surgery! I just wont you to know thatHurley is my favourite caracter from "LOST"... I hope that everything would be ok! Good luck!

ReplyDeleteDoes it go all the way to 11???
ReplyDelete=O
"one louder" for sure, but does it go to 11?
ReplyDeleteHey disneydiploma,
ReplyDeleteHow funny we think alike and we're both a day behind!
Helloooo
ReplyDeleteThat photos is so nice, Paris is a beautifull city
while travel not... do you have time to read the script of lost to tell us somthing? Jeje
A greeting and congratulations, you are a very good actor
sorry beacause I am spanish and my english are very bad
bye!
dammit, i thought i was so clever for thinking of posting something about going to eleven. bah.
ReplyDeleteskywriter: the worst part about the french dubs is that everyone has the same accent! i had a brilliant idea of how to fix that once - the americans could have quebec accents, charlie could have a france-french accent, sayid could sound algerian, claire could have an accent from, i dunno, french polynesia - but then it occurred to me that i have far too much time on my hands.
I thought it was the "Price is Right" hand gesture. That is very French, my son Zack is taking his fourth year of French and he says you have to do that or you cant speak french.
ReplyDeleteJorge!!! A ver si te vemos por Barcelona... Si tienes tiempo, visita: www.fotolog.com/zinko. es un bar en barcelona que se llama Bharma. Estas invitado, "Mr.Hugo".
ReplyDeleteBest wishes
JORDI

Have a nice day.
Andrea
Haha, Jorge you always crack me up! Love it!
ReplyDeleteYou are just too cute.
ReplyDeleteOk, I was gonna say more about how cute you were, but I just rubbed and got philosophy "when hope is not enough" serum in my eye and it's burning like crazy.
Beso, beso~~~

I love the beret. C'est tres chic.
ReplyDeleteI live near Gare du Nord, can't believe you were here Jorge, anyway compadre...
ReplyDeleteLa próxima vez que vengas te enseño a dónde hay que ir para no pasear como turista sino como un local.
Saludos a Chile Cuba y Nebraska desde Paris.
Cheers.
my black beret had an embroidered Eiffel Tower with the word "Paris." So it wins. :)
ReplyDeletewith the hat, in the picture with the Cathedral, you look like Dom DeLuis!
ReplyDeleteseriously!
On the one, and possibly only, trip I made to Paris, Notre-Dame was totally covered in scaffolding so they could scrubb 400 years worth of gunk off of it. It's so shiny looking now, but c'mon! It was my one trip! Scaffolding!
ReplyDeleteLe sigh...
Sorry. I'm a little bitter still.
