Worldly Insights
- Nature documentaries are narrated in the same voice around the world (I’m listening to one in Czech at the moment and knew exactly what it was before I turned around)
- Czech is a seriously fucked language
- Cheap airfairs are not only an ecological disaster but have meant that Bucks and Hen’s nights have evolved from bus tours of night clubs to the ravaging of foriegn countries
- Why do people keep assuming that I want to go to strip clubs and think it’s great when the ‘happy ending’ is only so many Czech Crowns - bargin mate!!
- Why is it so hard to buy soap in Prague
- Waiting around all day for a train is boring - especially when you are too tired to read and keep falling asleep in public trying
- Modern art has a huge handicap. Religious leaders liked to prove that they loved god the most. Therefore they poured countless amounts of time, energy, resources and financies in works of art which would become instantly recognisable as master pieces. With the death of god and an over emphasis on functionality, who will fund the master pieces of today? Did grandure die with god? What can we do to rectify the situation? Is it just about money? How can you be sure that the person you give money to will become the modern day Michelangello? What will be her inspiration?
- It will probably be god
- Why are all these artists named after the Ninja Turtles?
- I made a Welsh guy say ‘not the Dart’ lastnight

Well no, actually I was just bored out of my mind waiting for a train and had free internet access…
You’re right about Czech I think but that will have to wait for another day. In Krakow now so there’s no going back. In fact my one regret (already) is not doing more of the central/eastern countries.
Oh well, start saving for the next trip…

Dude - more sleep-deprived transit blogging - you’ve got the genre spot on (mine usually have more cusswords in em).

my tip: find a tree with a hole and perform an indecent act then quickly try on as many hats as possible within a half hour period- this little activity does wonders for stress.

woot!
Who needs soap huh? The unclean do, that’s who! You mate, have a clean soul so do not need these cleanliness stuffs.
As for modern Art… Look in computer games, AI, Genetic manipulation, weather control, bioengineered viruses and cybernetic technologies. This where we’ll find god again…When we become gods who last forever and can control the winds!
…that, or we’ll find the most beautiful buildings and sculptures and other arts in big business lobbies.
