The Czech is in the Mail

Woot, I am finally good to go! I got my passport and realized that since I have a beard in the passport that whenever I go out of the country I should probably grow a beard. I'll bring my camera and post pictures of Prague when I get back. There might not be any pictures of me, cause well, I'll be holding the camera. Unless I give my camera to someone and they have me take my shoes off and stand in a fountain. I plan on doing touristy things there like visiting castles, bridges and churches. I am now about to write two cliches that should never ever ever be used again. When in Prague, do as the Pragues do. What happens in Prague stays in Prague. Those 2 cliches have been used to death and I am now putting them in their coffin. Farewell "when in blah do as the blahs do" and "what happens in blah stays in blah". It was a long relationship. You just got too old and too overused. sniff. The next target of aging cliches are "It ain't over till the fat lady sings" and "were you born in a barn?" I kinda like "were you born in a barn". It's like, what does that have to do with anything? I think it was Abraham Lincoln who was born in a barn. Jesus was born in a barn. Was He messy? It's a funny cliche because it doesn't make much sense. I was born in a hospital. Should I be neat? I suppose when I am over there I should use the word 'Czech" in a cliche type manner. Are Czechs round? Do they bounce? Do they like rap ,"You better Czech yourself before you wreck yourself." What kind of money do they use? "Czech Marks". I hope they don't write themselves a Czech they can't cash. I guess the Czechs in the mail. Ok, now that I've got it outta my system you can continue with your day.

Thought of the Day
"It's ironic."
"What's ironic?"
"This. That we've come all this way, we made all this progress, but, you know, we lost the little things, the niceties."
"No, I mean, what does `ironic' mean?"

Don't know if you will get this before you leave, but the twist on the When in Prague, do as the Pragues do is -- Only go where there are people. Busy place good, empty alley bad. I learned that in Cape Town and it has come in handy ever since!

Your Big Bro, Ron
