He was more than a hero. He was a union man.

Look at her eyes. That cat has seen some shit in there!

That cat was seeing a bird or bird equivalent when the picture was taken. It was almost certainly chirping, and probably wiggling its butt, preparing to pounce.

People who carry their cats in a baby bjorn lack the follicle commitment of Louis Coulon.

He only has two Wikipedia articles, in French and German. The title of the French one is Louis Coulon (Unionist) while the Germans one us Louis Coulon (Beard haver)
