Wifey and I picked up our new Mitsubishi Colt last week. This time it’s a real car, not a toy.

The other day, I spoke with a friend about how much he will pay for the internet connection, once he come back to Croatia from the USA.

Recently, the wife and I felt a need to visit some real theaters, not movie theaters (which we visit on a regular basis).

Last night we went to Teatar Exit to see a comedy performance the Plaža (the Beach). It’s the drama about social intolerance.

The play is directed by Sunny Suninsky and performed by Linda Begonja, Sven Medvešek, Damir Klemenić, Mirta Zečević/Daria Knez (all very well known actors here in Croatia). The scene is very basic, and the whole performance depends on the actors’ abilities to transform between a few sets of characters – the play is a kind of a style rehearse, the genre which is often very demanding.

Vocal performance doesn’t dominate, so if one can’t actually understand all of the jokes, there’s always a support in adequate facial and body expressions. Really great acting.

If you’re my fellow citizen or just visiting Zagreb as a tourist, it’s absolutely worth seeing it! Plus, the moral of a story is great:

The img is inline HTML element. That’s why we can place it inside every other element, notably the span and a. When an image is nested inside a link (for example a thumbnail), it will ‘pick-up’ clickability of the a element. But what’s with the actual space occupied by those two? Why we sometimes can’t achieve desired effect? Continue reading ›
