I think your missing the point of the entire thread!


 :confused:

I didn't :)  I just found it interesting that the "German" town was in Louisiana and not, say, Pennsylvania and that's it's more than likely the name is from the French.

There were a LOT of Germans in France some years ago as I dimly recall from my history lessons!   :biggrin:

Grosse Tete is German for "Big Boobs"

In the "for what it's worth" Dept.:

In Louisiana I'd think it was from the original French, not German?

Grosse Tete means "Big Head" in French.  "Tetons," however, is slang in French for "Boobs."
You are correct sir !!!  Gross Tete is French for "Fat Head", or "Big Head". Most folks around here are French Catholics. Good people too.
The second law chases us all.
In most realms, tranquility comes from ownership.
Order ensues when everyone totes their own water.  
Stand firm, and never let the bastards grind you down.  
Life's arc is primarily charted between ones ears.
Good judgment comes from experience, and a lot of that comes from bad judgment.
Heaven is where the police are British, the lovers French, the mechanics German, the chefs Italian, and it is all organized by the Swiss.
Hell is where the police are German, the lovers Swiss, the mechanics French, the chefs British, and it is all organized by the Italians.

Thanks for listing them ... the ESG is the only one I could figure out.  That is a great bomb Kevin.  :bigthumbs:
