Subject: so I was flying Aeroflot back from Moscow...
(Stop laughing at me, it was the only thing available when I wanted to come back.) Anyway, I wound up with a layover of eight hours in Prague of all places before the El Al flight back home. So rather than sitting around in Ruzyne airport I went out to get lunch in the city. I found this nice little cafe that appears to cater to expats, which meant I could eavesdrop with relative freedom - because fuck knows I don't speak a word of Czech.
I have a point. Really. Appears they've had some unrest in the city since Buckethead's claim of responsibility for San Diego. Did you know Prague had a 'mutant town'? I didn't. I guess the climate's been turning pretty nasty, nightly Nasty Incidents and all, and it can't be blamed entirely on human bigots, either. Buckethead has fans over here, and scuttlebutt at my cafe has it that they're operating out of the neighborhood in question.
Might be something we want to keep an eye on. I mean, I know the Czech Republic's not a prime target for our kind of work, but they're not far removed from some of the Eastern European countries that are. Stuff that happens here could have ramifications elsewhere. Or something like that. Shut up.
-D.
PS: Still broken-brained?

You really are getting good at this, you know. I suspect it's the whole 'cute young woman asking innocently chirpy questions' act you do so well...

PS: Yes. You don't have to ask me that every 24 hours, you know.

And you're not keeping an eye on Hungary? You negligent bastard.

PS: I worry. Sue me.
