Don’t you love the way the headline writer threw in the hype word “stranded,” calling to mind people trapped by rising waters, abandoned in a war zone, stuck without anyplace to turn. Who would want to read “Strikes at Eiffel Tower Give Tourists More Time to Appreciate the Beauty of Paris” or “Orsay Closed by Parks Open” or “Eiffel Tower Visible from Far and Wide Despite Strikes” or “Strike over Retirement Age Leaves Tourists in Paris Well-Fed Anyway”?

To those who do find themselves “stranded” in Paris, well, lucky you!
