Bonjour Lorraine,
Je suis trés content de faire partie de tes amis. J'aurais tellement aimé etre présent à ton spectacle, et de ta charmante maman. J'aurais aimé etre là afin de te soutenir, mais hélàs j'ai eu une grippe carabinée, je suis encore au lit.
Mais je suis certain qu'il y'aura d'autres occasion pour chanter à ton honneur.
Bisous Lorraine

LOL this is crazy! And it only works if you have Internet Explorer (I think). You have to go to www . retwistic . com (no spaces) and then after it loads you need to hit the back button or else the funny video won't come up. If that doesn't work then hit the forward button instead.
