It´s named ´Kakaová (cocoa)´. So maybe that´s why his magic had worked on you:-)<br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n912v9PBKmIJan Krisohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00911872064660193688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32858889.post-72247162725610920002011-10-15T12:04:17.658+02:002011-10-15T12:04:17.658+02:00One of the stagger* of zombies with an unhealthy hold over Czech culture.

Hasselhoff has a kind of novelty popularity as a singer here in Germany that&#39;s not really taken seriously by anyone over 14 yrs. but himself. I mean, even I listen to Eddie Murphy sing &quot;Party All The Time&quot;, but have somehow resisted buying the CD, you know...<br /><br />Karel Gott, on the other hand, it quite good. If you like that kind of thing. Or if you&#39;re still a child at heart and remember him singing the theme song for the children&#39;s series &quot;Biene Maya&quot;... <br /><br />:)uncagedbirdshttp://uncagedbirds.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32858889.post-8785422222473282752011-09-17T18:17:22.830+02:002011-09-17T18:17:22.830+02:00Just found your blog a few days ago, what an awesome read!<br /><br />I&#39;m surprised that Karel Gott still has that &quot;gamouring&quot; effect on people, it&#39;s quite interesting to see people&#39;s first impressions of him, given that I can&#39;t remember mine since he was around for as long as I can remember.Bitter Chocolatehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14416155255730554432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32858889.post-3051970017024463492011-09-13T08:43:44.437+02:002011-09-13T08:43:44.437+02:00Tinu, I am *so* jealous. I got into Gott not long after I got to Prague and bought several albums. (Must to avoid: the 1962 English language <i>Golden Voice of Prague</i>, but the rest...). Called my music blog (moribund at the moment) Gott Milk. It seems he only plays the awards shows and that awful xmas thingy with Helena Vondrackova every year. And VIP no less. <br /><br />Wow.<br /><br />~JoeBishophttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14952148915677746043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32858889.post-78168129138609027812011-09-12T23:44:43.054+02:002011-09-12T23:44:43.054+02:00Ladies, thank you for your kind words and for reading.

I&#39;m hosting a young Fulbright scholar right now that I can&#39;t wait to show off to the local Turks. They will love her because she has devoted her study to their culture. That you cared enough to study Czech is reason enough to show you off! (Besides, there&#39;s also that fabulous female, totally happening, drop-dead gorgeous smile thing going on).

And I love cheese! For me, the breading did absolutely nothing for the cheese. Maybe it needed to be spiced? I mean, I used to love me some mozzarella sticks back in the day--and that&#39;s fried cheese too.BlackGirlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09640462183169755311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32858889.post-88081825827090602962011-07-06T13:55:29.160+02:002011-07-06T13:55:29.160+02:00LOVE the Robin Hood style!
