Morning Roundup: Charles Bridge is falling down


-This is a shame: The Czech Republic's best tennis player, Radek Štěpánek, is taking a hiatus from tennis because he's suffering from "fatigue syndrome," a condition that was diagnosed in the states recently. I'm not sure if that's the same as Chronic Fatigue, either way, rough deal.

-Prague has been fined 3.5 million crowns for royally effing up its reconstruction of Charles Bridge. Maybe you should keep the hordes of tourists off of it for a bit, give it a breather. Although to be fair, reconstructing a medieval bridge is probably pretty hard.

-The Czech telegram died yesterday, after 160 years. I had no idea you could still send those things.
