ABC Wednesday....... Z like Zygo





Z stands for Pierrot le Zygo on my blog today. Pierrot le Zygo is a blogger from Lodève, an old city about 30 minutes from Montpellier. In addition to being a very funny man, Pierrot is very imaginative. He has broken lots of quite "unexpected" records (you will find his name several times in the Guinness World Records).

A few years ago, the check he sent to the taxpayer was a big wooden cow he had made (he is a cabinet maker). The check was more than 3 meters long (http://pierrot-le-zygo.midiblogs.com/album/vachement_bon/). In France when people think they pay too much tax, they say that the state considers they are "des vaches à lait" (milk cows).

Pierrot ran for mayor of Lodève last year. On this occasion, he made a robot he called "la machine à serrer les mains" (a robot that shook hands with his voters). You can see it on his blogs.

He has appeared in many TV programs. Above are two photos excerpted from a famous TV program entitled "Vie privée, vie publique," in which he participated last year.

I wanted to pay this little tribute to Pierrot because he has a big heart and he is a faithful friend.
