A move to Paris from New York inspired these hilarious pieces, including ''Me Talk Pretty One Day'', about his attempts to learn French from a sadistic teacher who declares that ''every day spent with you is like having a caesarean section''.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHis family is another inspiration.  ''You Can''t Kill the Rooster'' is a portrait of his brother, who talks incessant hip-hop slang to his bewildered father.
