Czech army buys 4,000 pocket camouflage Bibles
The Czech army has purchased 4,000 pocket editions of the Bible with sand camouflage covers, the daily Lidové noviny reported on Wednesday. The military paid some 1.8 million crowns for the books which were bought without a tender. A spokeswoman for the General Staff of the army the Czech Biblical Society was the only firm that holds the rights for publishing the ecumenical edition of the Bible; that is the sole translation that can be used by all Christian denominations in the military.

I don't believe it either.
Ius primae noctis or the “right of the first night,” sometimes known as droit de seigneur, is a legendary right which was supposedly held by feudal lords. According to the terms of this right, the lord of the manor had the right to the marriage bed on the first night of a serf or peasant's marriage. Although numerous stories about ius primae noctis can be found, and the concept has been used as a plot device in many films and novels, some historical evidence strongly suggests that this right never existed.

Priscilla Klaus
Just watched Priscilla Queen of the Desert, and a mighty fine bus she is too. I thought it untopable until I read Cesky rozhlas news just now.
I think the President's website should read Wikipedia. It clearly states that the last prize was awarded in 2001, and its list of laureates unequivocally includes not one Vaclav.
Time I goed to New York to see Priscilla live on stage. What say you?

Czech humour black as ever
One of my friends was having lunch with one of his friends yesterday. In reference to the death of Vaclav Havel, my friend commented , that never in our lives will we ever see such a significant, monumental funeral. His friend noted that Karel Gott still lives.
