A new addition to the Deceiver.com International Strike Force will be joining us next week. A French-native fan of the blog (and a part-time journalist to boot) wrote us a few weeks ago from his home in the Canadian province of Quebec. To our great shock (and awe), he inquired about our plea some months ago for bilingual bloggers. Thankfully, his English was better than my high-school French, so we were able to connect. He’s going to be blogging under the nom de plume of “Just Jacque.”

If you’re a Francophone, or if you just enjoy looking at vowels with accents (and that funky curlicue letter “C” thingy), look for a French flag icon next to the Italian one next week. Our Italian friend “Pop Arazzo” seems to have fallen off the blog-wagon lately, but he promises to start writing again soon too.
