What do you think of Metric? They opened at some of the MSG shows this tour and I saw them on Conan O'Brian. I picked up their cd yesterday. So far so good.

i went to the MSG just to see them.

Met.. who?

Thus the metric system did not really catch on in the States, unless you count the increasing popularity of the nine-millimeter bullet.

VINCENT: Well, in Amsterdam, you can buy beer in a movie theatre. And I don't mean in a paper cup either. They give you a glass of beer, like in a bar. In Paris, you can buy beer at MacDonald's. Also, you know what they call a Quarter Pounder with Cheese in Paris?

JULES: They don't call it a Quarter Pounder with Cheese?

VINCENT: No, they got the metric system there, they wouldn't know what the @#$%& a Quarter Pounder is.

JULES: What'd they call it?

VINCENT: Royale with Cheese.

JULES: Royale with Cheese. What'd they call a Big Mac?

VINCENT: Big Mac's a Big Mac, but they call it Le Big Mac.

JULES: What do they call a Whopper?

VINCENT: I dunno, I didn't go into a Burger King. But you know what they put on french fries in Holland instead of ketchup?

JULES: What?

VINCENT: Mayonnaise.

JULES: Goddamn!

Just so you know, I HATE mayonnaise on my fries!

so you go with Jules.

once in a while I get: rot weiss gestreift. (red-white stripped)
Ketchup AND mayonnaise

Mayo with french fries sounds absolutely disgusting.

2 parts ketchup 1/4 part mayo and you mix it up and its real fine........
