Wow. For a taste of the difficulty of the Czech language (and perhaps for other subversive motives), I give you a Czech punk song about, well, punk and punk image.
It's hard enough to pronounce words that begin with a consonant cocktail like "hmn" and "hl" in normal conversation, much less while you're singing punk ala "Znamka Punku."
[update] With all due confession of how easy it is to chuckle at what we don't understand, I recommend a glimpse at the related videos (and mullets) there -- one about "Tractors" and one about cigarettes, apparently.
In the interests of the homeland, I have no further comment.
As you may have noticed, the site has changed. Sampa, the free-site host, did a version 2 of some sort.
Despite an FAQ that made it sound like allowing one's site to go through v.2 surgery would be okay, there were several flexibilities that surprisingly disappeared with the click of a button. (e.g. I cannot believe sidebars like this one are even narrower than before.)
And I'm told -- miraculously! -- that the conversion cannot be undone. Truth be told, I'm actually quite pissed. But free is free. Sampa has otherwise been good to me.
So I need to sort through site "features" to see how I can make do. Except that I don't have the time at the moment, in the middle of graduate classes and Lighthousehockey.com. (btw, I've removed that Lighthouse RSS feed so that you're not clogged with random Islanders hockey gibberish).
But I promise to touch up the accessories when I get a chance, and return to irregularly scheduled blogging.
