As heard on 123.3........

At least he didn't copy Napoleon's on-the-way back message to Josephine! OK, I'll bite. What was Napoleon's message to Josephine?? Go here and scroll down past the photo of a letter he sent her. What he wrote is definitely NSFW and probably not for here either: https://www.thevintagenews.com/2018/...rte-josephine/ Martin is altogether too coy! The (reputed) message was "Not tonight, Josephine!" What I have heard for years is tactfully referred to by the Chicago Tribune c.10 years ago: "According to legend, French emperor Napoleon finished a military campaign and wrote a love letter to empress Josephine that read, «Ne te lave pa. Je reviens». (Don't bathe. I'm coming home)." For those still in need of explanation, may I suggest that his concern was that she should not smell too much of soap! J. |
