The last one they could really claim was when they put a 14-year old girl in charge of their army. Of course, the girl in question (St. Joan of Arc--Jeanne D'Arc) was divinely inspired and the English were mostly drunk off their asses, so this may not have been a fair fight. The French were so grateful for their victory, they had her gang-raped, tortured, and burned at the stake.
They do like to claim victories won by others since then, though (Yorktown, both world wars, etc.). Remember, France is the only country in the world that has lost wars against Mexico AND Algeria!

How many French Victories have you heard of that didn't involve lots of guys from other countries doing most of the fighting?

Get the French Military Victories mug.Better known in the States as "Posh Spice", Victoria Beckham is a member of the nreunited Spice Girls and a fashion designer. She is wrongly trashed by trashy tabloids like the "Sun" or "Daily Mail". Reviled by the fat chicks and gay men who are jealous that she is fucking David Beckham (sexy ass). Ironically, she is the skinniest Spice Girl and has had the most children (three).

Get the Victoria Beckham mug.Lauren and Victoria are two beautiful, feisty, and fun girls who are best friends and better yet, sisters. Everyone is jealous of their glorious friendship. They're always with eachother, causing ruccus wherever they go. At parties, they're always with eachother, and wouldn't have it any other way. They can do simple things like watch movies and still have the greatest time imaginable. They'll go down in history as an epic duo, and be even greater than Louis and Clark. They would catch a grenade for eachother, throw their heads on a plate for eachother, jump in front of a train for eachother, and do anything for eachother. Finding friendship like theirs is like trying to nail jello to a tree. They're two peas in a freakin pod alright.
