Light Blogging

Due to a relatively high number of visitors to Brno lately (you know who you are) which has in turn taken your correspondent to such environs as Rožnov pod Radhoštěm and Prague, blogging has been a little slow. This will only continue for the next few days, as I shall soon, for the first time ever, end up in the Netherlands for four days. So just a few links will have to suffice for now.

First off, the curious story of Luboš Bokštefl, who decided that "Super Size Me" was such a splendid idea, it should be transferred to the notoriously healthy environment of Czech pubs. Eating nothing but pub food for 30 days, he lost six kilos. Indeed.

Man targeted by aliens who drop meteorites on his house. He's either a prophet, a fraud, or just in a very strange spot.

Sigh. But is anyone surprised? I mean, don't you kind of expect Oliver Stone to say such things, in a way?

Finally, an excellent, fair, and lucid article about the Al Gore sexual assault story. From, of all places, The Nation!

The comment section is open. I think I'm at least as interesting as Arianna Huffington, and I'd like to believe that Starobrno Nation is as willing to contribute to the excitement! Hopefully next week blogging will resume at it's usual turtle pace, rather than the snail pace of the past week.
