      If we meet up at RR at a prescribed time and call each other Jim at the bar for an hour, then leave her a decent tip, maybe they'd forget about having no ID.
      Red Robin, Yum.

      Sincerely yours,

            I can't remember the restaurant but they had a "Bob's your uncle" day. If your name was Robert or Bob and you went with your niece or nephew you got a free meal.

                  Haha... and he's supposed to be French in that role even though he's got a thick Danish accent, right?

                    Most people wouldn't notice the difference... much.... Standard French (a frankish influened Oïl/northern gallo-romance language) has similar northern germanic R's and L's as Danes, some Dutch, some Germans etc.

                    A lot of people aren't familiar with Danish as much as with some other Scandinavian languages so one can describe it as a German attempting to speak Swedish with French accent.... if stupid and simplistic explanation is needed...

                    When it comes to Le Chiffre, then he is supposed to have some Alsace background, that would make Germanic accent believable. Wikipedia says that he has traces of Marseille accent which then makes it absurd as Marseille accent is very Italian influenced and traditionally the people in Marseille spoke Occitan and not Oïl, specially Germanic influenced Oïl. Today very few speak Occitan of course but plenty speak Catalan in Spain and Andorra which came from Occitan language. Not much germanic influence there. And Marseille is probably the most Latin city on the planet, most people there have roots from Italy, Spain, Portugal, other places in Southern France etc. + Plenty of Greek, Jewish, Arabic and even Slavic influences. Very non-Germanic city.
