How to Fake a Convincing French Accent

Salut tout le monde!

I stumbled across this page as I was double checking the French spelling of "euh"-- you know, that sound you always comment on when we watch French video clips and films.  I thought some of you would find it funny, and those of you interested in theater or having a passable French accent might even find it instructive!  Either way, I hope that you'll take a moment to check it out.
