WOULD YOU HAVE GUESSED ST. LOUIS?

Probably not what would leap to mind, even in Maurice Sendak's imagination (if he could imagine STL at all). But at this time of year the lid is allowed to come off the id, license has nothing to do with your permis de conduire and, as they say in New Orleans, laissez les bon temps rouler. I'm told that last phrase, known by most people in the U.S., is nearly meaningless in France.
