Will there be anyone cosplaying as Wallace?

[sjohnson1577]

Zoe looks naked when she's in profile.

[themacnut]

At least from the right side. As for Sandra, looks like she's in for a long, booorrring day.

[Spidrift]

Sandra should be used to selling food by looking cute. It was her job back in Montreal.

And hey, what's with the hostility to cheese? She won't last long in France with that attitude. (She won't last long at a cheese sales convention with that attitude.) Cheese is tasty. Cheese comes in all sorts of varieties. Cheese should be more fun to sell than a lot of stuff. A one-day gig booth-babing high-throughput pump valve components, or low-density plasterboard sheeting, would have been something worth complaining about.

Actually there's still heirs to the royal family. And I'm pretty sure they've heard about the Palais des Congrès. The pretender to the title of King of France would be this old guy.

[vampire hunter D]

Wow, if you're possible king is gonna look like that maybe you guys had better stick to republics a bit longer.

There is another claimant to the French throne in a way:

Interstingly, he's also part Bourbon as well

[Falaris]

Hm. According to wikipedia, there's a list of 120 claimants to the throne. The one considered to have the strongest claim - top of the list, so to speak - is this guy, of the house of Bourbon.

Can't say I know much about this though, but he looks kind of cool, at least.

Does cheese conventions even HAVE booth babes? I thought that was a computer gaming thing..

[Don Alexander]

Do not mock The Cheese.

The Cheese Stands Alone!

Were the Plantards on that list at all?

I think that every sort of trade show has booth babes. You may not have seen Lord of War.

But anyway - Sandra is an English-speaking Canadian. Going by the dirndl and the setting, she may be about to have the job of selling German cheese, to the French. She may have a problem.

[Eisu]

She has shown that she can speak French though. This whole strip I linked is conversed in french (thus the parentheses) though she still mostly speaks in English.

[Spidrift]

True. But it'll be Canadian-accented French, and I doubt that she speaks German.

And that still leaves the selling-ice-to-Eskimos nature of her assignment.

[Bambikles]

I don't understand why Sandra is asking about the royal family.
Oh... Just stroke me. Palais des Congrès. That's...that's...ABYSMALLY dumb. *screams in horror*

And she doesn't seem to know France is a Republic ????? Sooooo uncivilized* !!!!!
*auuuuuuuggggghhhhhh !!!!!!* (couldn't find an horrified smiley).
She lives in Canada, even better, in Montréal, for goodness sake !!!! And she speaks French !!!!
If she was from USA, I wouldn't have bothered... But there it just breaks the laws of logic/believablity.

*couldn't resist to the appeal of the Star Wars reference.

True. But it'll be Canadian-accented French

WHAT HAS BEEN HEARD...CANNOT BE UNHEARD
Now Sandra's just lost several orders of magnitude of sex-appeal. Now I imagine her speaking with Céline Dion's voice.
THANK YOU !

[Akamar]

Actually, I'm starting to feel for and perhaps agree with Zoe's indifference and Tatiana's disdain...
