We usually do it in about 3 comfortable hours. From Oslo it must be four or five times more by car. But by plane not longer in time. So do pick one and come.<br /><br />Paseos programados sí que hay también para visitantes desde Buenos Aires, especialmente para VIP que trabajan con instituciones de fama mundial como los Poemas del Río Wang. ¿Viajás también con cabras, o más bien con unas gatas del Jardín Botánico?<br /><br />De vuelos directos BA-Brno no sé nada, pero al máximo puedes secuestrar un vuelo BA-Moscú con unas groserías lunfardas pronunciadas sobre Brno… o Budapest…Studiolumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06377777909296284368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4565845984512808077.post-19493341688280110032009-11-29T15:31:45.865+01:002009-11-29T15:31:45.865+01:00Oh, yes!

And of course you have a good reason to go to Brno: to meet me (almost) half-way between Oslo and Budapest, and visit together some magic Czech little towns like this. There are cheap direct flights from Oslo to Prague, and I’ll take you by car. (The back side of our car is prepared for carrying around newfoundlanders, so you can take one or two goats with you, I’ll be enchanted to greet them.)<br /><br />The crocodile is made of… (surprise!!!) crocodile. back in the 1500s.

It is not Moscow but Leningrad, not Mercedes but Ladas, and not given to but stolen from.”<br /><br />(In Hungarian it sounds even better, as “being given to” and “stolen from” rhyme: “osztogatnak” and “fosztogatnak”.)<br /><br />Some of my other favorite Radio Erevan jokes are:<br /><br />Question: Is there a difference between capitalism and communism?<br />Radio Erevan: Of course, and a huge one. In capitalism, man exploits man. In communism, it’s exactly the reverse.<br /><br />Question: Is it true that the poet Vladimir Mayakovsky committed suicide?<br />Radio Erevan: Yes, it is true, and even the record of his very last words is preserved: “Don’t shoot, comrades.”<br /><br />Question: Why did Armenia establish a Ministry of Navy if we have no sea?<br />Radio Erevan: To spite Azerbaijan who established a Ministry of Culture.<br /><br />Question: What does “chaos” mean?<br />Radio Erevan: We do not comment on national economics.Studiolumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06377777909296284368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4565845984512808077.post-38454902345758641072009-11-27T00:14:48.899+01:002009-11-27T00:14:48.899+01:00Este descubrimiento amerita ahora una selección de...Este descubrimiento amerita ahora una selección de chistes de Radio Erevan para los no iniciados (los pocos ejemplos de Wikipedia despertaron mis deseos de conocer tus favoritos...)Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16419101761966668410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4565845984512808077.post-80147038116784497832009-11-26T15:56:46.781+01:002009-11-26T15:56:46.781+01:00I raise my (language) hat!
