Le Scandale Plame: The Adventure Begins

It's been a very good day.


Technical note: Interestingly, the expression, "nonchalant," is no longer in the French language itself:

Etymology: French, from Old French, from present participle of nonchaloir to disregard, from non- + chaloir to concern, from Latin calEre to be warm -- more at LEE
Date: circa 1734
: having an air of easy unconcern or indifference
synonym see COOL

[Merriam-Webster]
