Dead Like Me Movie 2008 Teaser Trailer:

02/09/2008

Yesterday I had a hard day, because of my hangover after Friday's party and:
1st - One whole hour of squash playing
2nd - Watching "comedy series of Czech presidential election" on TV
3rd - A trip with Štepánek and Lenička. Actually we [Martin and I] went on a trip and they [Štepánek and Lenička] went geocaching.
4th - Watching Nominations of Czech movies from 2007 for Czech lion award. Ester Kočičková [a moderator of the ceremonial] has very showy hair style and she was very enjoyable and witty.

Jeff & Achmed

Today I have met Jeff Dunham [the ventriloquist] and his friend Achmed [the dead terrorist] for the first time.

Another funny Czech song

Another next funny Ivan Mladek's song I discovered while I was writting the last czenglish spot. The song called "The shortcuts" starts at 5:27...


...and in the comments on youtube its translated to English by ID deep747 and ID lekkno.

PS: The man on the left is Zdeněk Svěrák, a Czech writer and actor who wrote Kolya movie screenplay - the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language [Oscar] winner in 1997.

Grey's Anatomy S03E15

Yesterday I watched Grey's Anatomy on TV. It was the 15th episode of the 3rd series. This episode had very very dramatic ending [the most dramatic ending of all episodes I have ever seen] and I was very very curious how it will continue.
But the Christmas next week. And these episodes weren't on Czech TV yet. Really delicious situation.
Primarily I wanted to watch La Reine Margot, because:
a) the movie seemed interesting,
b) Vincent Perez plays La Môle in this movie. I have weakness for him since he played in the Indochine.
But I needed to see the next episode od GA!
So, promptly I got the 16th episode. I was watching GA on my notebook and occasionally I looked at La Reine Margot on TV.
But...the 16th episode had much more dramatic ending than the 15th episode had. What could I do? It was 1am, but I really needed to see how it will continue.
So, promptly I got the 17th episode and the 18th episode for sure.
Happily on the 17th episode it turned out well. At 2am I could go to bed.
But today's getting up was very troublesome.

The Dilemma

This day is unusual.
Usually there is nothing I would like to watching on TV. But today I have a problem to decide what I will be watching. Look:
ČT1: Bylo nás pět, episode 1 [My favourite czech series]
ČT2: The Miracle Planet: Evolution of education
Nova: Černí baroni [Czech movie]
Prima: Hercule Poirot - Cards on the Table

I was sorry for myself because no one could go to the pub with me. Though it's Friady evening! But when I looked at the TV program, I'd changed my mind and I decided this night will be TV tonight.
(Right now I discovered there is my favourite fairy tale "About pronounce wrongly princess" on Sunday's TV program. It's well-known czech fairy tale. But unfortunately I will not see it :( )

Update 10:25PM
Everything is fine.
Excluding Jan Kraus talk show. Jan Kraus talk show is for example something like The tonight show with Jay Leno, but in Czech. Jan Kraus is jokeful. Yes. But he is egoistical and ill-mannered too. He still interrupts his guests. I mind it, because his guest are interesting people and I'm interesting what they are saying. But I don't hear them, because Jan Kraus is still blathering his wouldbe witty comments.
I'm looking forward Ally McBeal.

About theatre, books and the series

1) We were at MdB to see the Fame musical. Good, but if I may choose, in future I would like to see the West Side Story at the sixt time rather than the Fame at the second time.
Also, I think Stanislav Moša, the theatre director, is megalomaniac. When I was working at MdB [seven years ago], the theatre has one house, today its occupied three houses.
2) Few weeks ago I have read the notice about Stephen Leacock and then I remembered I didn't read any Leacock's book for a long long time ago. So I went to the library to borrow all free [7] books by Leacock. Just the same day I impatiently started to read one of them but unfortunately the book wasn't as too readable as I had thought it should be. After the first book [Literary lapses] I started to read the Jane Austin's Pride and Prejudice [I've never read it before] for a relaxation and I came to the conclusion that I would like to read 7 Austin's books rather than 7 Leacock's books.
After Pride and Prejudice I have tried to read any else book by Leacock, but I have enjoyed it lesser than the Literary lapses.
So all the Leacock's books I have gave back to the library and five of them was unreaded. I don't like gave back unreaded books. Maybe because I'm librarian...? :)
3) I decided to do something with my poor English:
a) I have started to read Agatha Christie's Autobiography in English. The book was bought in London few years ago by myself and its time is finally comming. I'm really curious how long time I will entertaining to read not-native-language book. I like this book a lot and I have read it many times, lastly on my Russia trip this summer.
b) Inside four days [I finished reading the book] I've got the BBC series Pride and Prejudice with English subtitles, too. I'm looking forward to English lessons with Colin Firth.
