What the Heck Do You Know?
The following survey has nothing to do with anything important around the world, but, after filling out dozens of other surveys, questionnaires forms and assorted whatnot, we here at Les Pages aux Folles thought you might enjoy one more.
Once you've filled this out, tear along the dotted line, take the survey firmly in both hands and tear it into wee little pieces. For goodness' sake, don't give it to us! Not only do we not want it, but we wouldn't know what to do if, say, 4,000 of you filled out surveys and brought them to our office.
