Time for a little midterm and opportunity to impress your friends with foXnoMad’s dirty french words of the week. I’ve given you a few hints and you can watch the entire scene as well for the translation.

Nom de dieu de putain de bordel de merde de saloperie de connard d’encul? de ta m?re.

As the Merovingian says, “cursing in French is like wiping your ass with silk.” 😉 Having trouble? Read on for the answer key.

Ever watch a movie and said, “I want to go there”? Here are three DVDs you should pick up to get your inner vagabond inspired to travel the globe.

• The Motorcycle Diaries – The now legendary story of Che Guevara‘s early years and the events of his youth that built the revolutionary leader to come. A motorcycle tour across South America with beautiful cinematography of the landscapes of Argentina, Peru, and Venezuela to name a few. Perhaps what makes this film touch our inner free spirits is people Guevara and his companion [Alberto] Granado meet along the way. If you enjoy the movie, the book and actually diaries written by Guevara of the trip are even better – plus books don’t run out of batteries like video iPods 😉

Contributions from foXnoMad readers totalled $25 for the month bringing the all-time dollars raised to $1,141.68! Don’t forget you can contribute any amount over $5 anytime to our UNICEF page. Also, the chores for charity offer is being extended as long as I’m able.

• 376 million kids around the world have to walk more than 15 minutes to get a drink of clean water.

You can also donate to UNICEF by using Good Search, starting your MSN chats with “i’m“, or by taking a socially conscious vacation.

Thanks for your help!
