French president Nikolas Sarkozy will be spending his vacation time at Lake Winnipesaukee this month.
Sarkozy, his country's celebrated new leader, is planning to get some rest and relaxation on the shores of Lake Winnipesaukee.

It is unclear whether Sarkozy's family is accompanying him or why he has chosen Wolfeboro; local residents interviewed did not know of any previous connection. The timing of his visit is also something of a mystery, but a source with knowledge of the trip said Sarkozy plans to arrive in early August and stay for as long as two weeks. A spokesman for the French consulate in Boston declined yesterday to confirm the visit.

If Lake Winnipesaukee's reputation for motorcycles, power boats, and jet skis seems unlikely to attract a sophisticated, cultured Frenchman, Wolfeboro itself is a picturesque small town that retains the charm of early 20th century New England.
No word yet on whether or not Ellen Degeneres will go swimming there and burst into flames.

Hasn't everyone seen it? I really don't get it. Why is it funny that she burst into flames?

that commercial is not funny. But that's just the type of stuff she says. I guess there's somebody who finds it funny (housewives) or else she wouldn't have a TV show.
