sava's taking this whole Europe thing a little further than "kougs" did.  He actually acts like he knows stuff instead of just repeating over and over and over how he's been there.

thats because he's in spain as opposed to c. rep.

Did kougs have to learn any language?  No.  He was a frat boy partying in a English speaking country with beer.

The Czech republic is an English speaking country?

ha.... i was in the czech republic too. i did go to spain but i speak little spanish. and lay off trying to learn czech, that language is absolutely ridiculous. sorry to ruin your points, katkid, thanks for backing me up.

as far as european stuff, i followed these things before i went over there. but in all seriousness though, Henry to barca is the equivalent of Kobe Bryant, Lebron James, and Allen Iverson all on the same team.

are you kidding me? eastern europe as a whole is a completely different cultural experience than any western europen culture. you are talking about one of the oldest cities in the european world, not to mention it is a cultural mecca of art and architecture.  :loly: :ustupid:

yes. Barcelona Football Club just purchased one of the worlds greatest strikers (forward) in Thierry Henry, which means he will be joining probably the best player in the world (Ronaldihno) and one of the other best strikers in the world, Eto'o. Not to mention the rest of their line up is absolutely sick. It is the equivelant of a team already having Lebron James and Allen Iverson and then buying Kobe Bryant, except none of them are selfish. Barca will be absolutely unstoppable, god have mercy on the champions leage.

asiava:  please tell me you're joking.  Toledo has as much history as all of E. Europe combined and that is probably the third most historic city in Spain.  Please tell me you will travel extensively when you're there.

Saul:  yes.  Soccer.  European soccer.  Barcelona (ESP), Arsenal (ENG) and Celtic Glasgow (SCO) are the relevant parties.  Well I pretty much unnecessarily mentioned Celtic in passing because they are my team but...

Barca:  Henry, sup? This is Barca.
Henry:  Sup Barca, how is everything going over there where you are at?
Barca:  Things are sweet man, sweet like molasses.  So Henry, what's going on with you?  It's been a while...
Henry:  Not much Barca, you know, the usual.
Henry & Barca: LOL!
Barca:  How about the ladies? Meow?
Henry:  Hey man, I get mine...as always.
Henry & Barca: LOL!
Barca:  Ok man, just checkin' in, talk to you later.
Henry:  Lates.

asiava:  please tell me you're joking.  Toledo has as much history as all of E. Europe combined and that is probably the third most historic city in Spain.  Please tell me you will travel extensively when you're there.

when i was there, i spent a week in spain, half a week in germany, a weekend in austria, and 4 months in Prague.

and no, i'm not joking. The city was founded in 600 b.c. and has gone through too many political changes to name, especially in the last 100 years. The city itself has been a cultural mecca  due to its central european location and its magnificent arts. The city is one of the only cities in europe that hasn't been touched by war, except for one church in the the center. I agree that Spain has incredible culture, i loved it, but saying that the Czech Republic doesn't have any culture is just preposterous. The Slavic lands have been around just as long as anywhere else in Europe, and have seen many different occupations, from the prussian empire, to the ottoman, roman, etc... It is a city built on history, just as many of the other cities in Europe. However it has gone a little less scathed by the hand of western culture. A lot of things that we see in the states can be seen in Spain, France, England. They all have their own cultures, but they heavily influenced our own, so we see a lot of that. Either way comparing cultural relevency is like comparing daughters and sons, they are different but they are all equally important.

The main point i wanted to make was that by going to a country that wasn't a part of Western Civilization, or Western Europe (not on the euro, not heavily invaded by tourists) i (we if you include kougs) got a completely different reference point on how people operate. I agree that if you just visit Prague for a weekend you will only get the english side of things. The same thing applies to any major city or tourist spot. If you immerse yourself in it then you find out about a completely different European sentiment; that which is alienated and often left to die. I don't want to get into an essay about it, but saying that Spain is some phenomenal cultural symbol in comparison to the Czech Republic is audacious on so many levels.

Spain has the history of being conquerers, prague has a history of being conquered.

I know which is more interesting in terms of unique cultural artifacts.
