Mon
cher ami, whether you are a Jew or a gentile, rich or poor,
American or a foreigner, what would you offer a Jewish princess,
Michele Alliot-Marie,
the former Secretary of Defense of France, the majestic Monica
Crowley, the queen of gossip Joan Rivers, Madonna, Angelina Jolie,
a bankrupt woman who teaches creative financing and financial
success at NYU or a humble Filipina woman who cleans your house,
if you ask them out? What would you offer them to drink, if you go
on a date with any of them? Champagne, a blessed water by your
parish priest, a frozen Martini, a Rolling Rock, a Calvados, a
Petrus, an Armagnac, a Sancerres or a Hershey's syrup? Shame on
you if you do not choose Champagne. Really, it does not make
any difference, nor it does alter the refined manners protocol,
and the way you treat a lady, whether you go out with a woman of a
privileged status or a woman who drives a truck four by four with
an expired license plate. All women are ladies and deserve the
ultimate respect and your "savoir faire".

disease detection and prevention.
