Unfortunately I prefer to use book shelves but I've run out of space and need to by another set.

Unfortunately, the sale is miles away and the cost of gas will offset the savings.

Fortunately, since they were the ones who said "Oh, that's going to be child's play", they cannot seriously blame you for hurting themselves!

Fortunately, France probably has an equivalent style for one of them, such as Famille Francaise (Pass-alongs) Mineur. (Sorry, I can't come up with a french from of pass-along or hand-me down.)

Fortunately by then the US Missile Defense Program will be able to defend our friends in France from any crazy individual with enough money to buy or build a nuclear tipped ballistic missile.

Unfornutly they over-compensate with defence missiles and cause a nuclear winter that last for a few hundred years, and the survivors swell and mutate in the most horrible ways imaginable. (Im safe In my bunker)
