Radoje,

Good to find your blog. I was searching for something or other and came across it. Not many Serbian bloggers so it's always good to find one.

Amen, Amen.

We in the West are also quick to forget that the sacrifices of many in the Balkans are why we are not (yet) under Sharia.

The Clinton-Bush surrender of Kosovo to (Racially Slavic) Islamic Naro-terrorists will go down in history as a betrayal just below the enormity of the Sack of Constantinople.

Drat, that's what happens when too many dudes named Adam commment on my blog...
Sorry about that.
So you going to be up north any time soon?
Nice rioting at your alma mater by the way....

I think you have me confused with someone else. Remember, this is your high school godless heathen pal, who got ordained for the irony.

You mentioned in a previous comment of having studied under Eric Miller who was part of TNP. I was hoping you still had a connection in that direction. If I presumed too much, my apologies!

Mr. Adam,
Since you've got an "in" with some of the writers of the late, great New Pantagruel, I was wondering if you had any contacts that would allow me access to the forums there.
Many thanks.

John at "Notes from a Common-place Book" has a very good collection of commentary one the situation in Kosovo here: http://notesfromacommonplacebook.blogspot.com/2008/02/more-like-mindedness-on-kosovo.html

Suffice to say that while I'm generally in favor of secession movements, the most thuggish sort of "majority rule" is not a legitimate basis for independence. Of course I'm not overly fond of democracy in general.

Thanks for the compliments on the mustache (though I have no clue who Daniel Planview is...). Having a full, robust mustache is something of a Serbian tradition, and since both my father and grandfather wore them (and my wife is in full agreement) who am I to buck tradition.
Yes, a son will be born to us, God willing, some time around Orthodox Easter, your prayers and well-wishes are much appreciated!

One of my favorite lines from the great British standup Eddie Izzard:

"I'm from Europe, where all the history comes from."

I'm curious what your thoughts are on the recent Kosovar independence. I admit to being entirely ignorant to such things, but my first reaction was to recall a time when a place called Yugoslavia was on the globe, and file it under "Splintering, Yugoslavia" in my head.

Also, mad, mad, mad kudos to your moustache in your wedding photo. That, my friend, is an epic moustache. It calls to mind a certain Daniel Planview and something about a milkshake.

Finally, I hear you've spawned. Mazel tov!
