Prague is great for mushy, flavorless food. Like goulash without paprika. Without any further context, switching cities because of overly flavored food sounds fishy.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Food with flavor would only distract from the beer.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
I was in North Beach yesterday and decided that you, me, Juliana, Matilda and JZ need to go to this place called Melt.
Oh, yes. Also, we need to go to Cafe Jaqueline, where all they do is souffles. But we need about 4 hours for dinner. At least.
Allyson, I'm so glad you're okay.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Ugh. Taking the morning off. No way I am sitting at a desk all day. I'm just so sore from getting jerked forward. Nothing some Tylenol won't help, but I think the sitting at desk all day will surely make it worse.
Allyson, I was in an accident just like yours about a month ago, although I was the middle car, not the front car. If you have one of those rice-filled sock thingies that goes in the microwave to get warm (or, really, a heating pad), I recommend you pre-emptively put it on your neck/shoulders.

My theory has always been that heavy beer consumption there made it unnecessary to develop good cuisine.

And the hot-dog in a roll that you could get on every corner for something ridic like 10 cents are quite filling!

Okay, so maybe this is a legitimate medical thing but I'm thinking it's just a case of a kid getting whatever he wants and that he is growing up to be a very unpleasant adult.
If it actually legitimately made him faint, then it sounds like a medical thing. As a person who fits the "picky eater" profile myself, I get a little defensive about it, though. Food, like smells, is sometimes a personal preference issue and sometimes an actual physical issue. Think that sentence may not have made sense.
The whole changing-vacation-plans thing makes no sense to me, I have to say.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Also true of the Puritans?

I need more songs about zombies.
You might try asking in the music thread, but here's a few:
I Walked with a Zombie by Roky Erickson
Eye of the Zombie by John Fogerty
All you Zombies by The Hooters
Zombie by The Cranberries
That's just off the top of my head.
