North Korea has asked the Czech Republic to ban “Team America,” a movie I have yet to see because of my little screamy ones. The Marmot has the goods. It’s actually quite funny to anyone who has been to Czech recently. The Czechs are about the happiest, friendliest, most free-spirited people in Europe–a happy island kingdom in a dour, grey, relativist sea. They seem to have democracy in their DNA. Czech dissidents once protested Communist rule by sneaking into a Soviet war memorial at night and painting the T-34 tanks pink.
