Dig the press


Dig the press

Nowadays it is very difficult to find something, which shows common sense. I have no idea why it is happening - it looks like it is just not popular to be smart, probably because we just like to follow leaders.

This one I have found in the Prague Post, when flying back from Marseilles:

"CARTOONS Danish cartoons of the prophet Mohammed have appeared on posters in Prague and Brno, ČTK reported May 31. The Czech Muslim community has ignored the cartoons, saying their portrayal of Mohammed is wrong, but that they are not worth commenting upon."

Looks like environment forces people to change (muslims in cz), on the other hand here is an opposite example:

"Rated R

All I can say about the “Sexism?” exhibit at Galery Václava Špály on Národní street is — God help the Czech Republic and its people (“Rated R,” Night & Day, May 21–27). What a new low this has reached. Can you not see the depravity of this? Are we not close to mimicking the Roman Empire in its final days?When my children are in Prague, I will make sure they do not walk down this street. How is one supposed to raise moral children in this Satanic culture? Is it any wonder that Islamic fanatics hate the West?"

Naturally, it came from Texas.

And some sad news:

"Australia’s James Squire Pilsner and Oregon’s Hopworks Urban Brewery Lager won the gold and silver awards, respectively, for their pilsner beers at the competition, which was held in late April. Coming in third was Gambrinus Premium, brewed by Plzeňský Prazdroj, the legendary Czech brewery that first invented the pilsner style of beer in 1842."
