Some assorted miscellany

Prague Spring . . . is exquisite.

But first, there are some random and strange things I wanted to mention.

Like, you see the strangest things while waiting to catch a bus from a train station. There is this couple, and they look like a bunch of complete hicks, straight out of South Dakota, USA or something. The man wears a cowboy hat with a giant raccoon tail hanging off the back and is a huge fan of those leather-string ties that my Grandpa adored (so that always makes me smile). He and his wife also rock cowboy boots, plaid shirts and general hick-ness that you can see but can't quite describe.

Also in view of these Czech hicks was a fuchsia Ford Fiesta (the European fraternal twin of the Escort) with a giant United States Marine Corps sitcker stuck to the driver's side door . . . I'm like bwuh?

Oh and around the corner from that was a small shop with a large American Confederate flag flying above the entrance.

I have more of these little gems for your reading pleasure.
