Ah, the weather forecast. Feels like nobody’s watching it anymore. Everybody is interested in the daily news, the economy, the sports… but when the weather forecaat is on, they all switch the channel hoping they will see more politics and economy and sports. Poor weather forecast. But—Bosnian TV station OBN found the way to make a part of the viewers stay tuned in also for the weather. This is where Lanina vremenska prognoza (Lana’s weather forecast) comes in:

Yep, you got it. They’ll let a girl dressed like a porn star let us know about the weather. Pure genius!

It doesn’t matter if you don’t understand Bosnian. Nobody really listens to what she’s saying anyway.

In case you’re wondering, the girl’s name is Lana Dramicanin – she’s an obscure model. Well, maybe not so obscure anymore.

Pobednik monument is happy to see you

August 11, 2010

If you are a tourist, and in Belgrade for the first time, it is to be expected that you will be taken to the Kalemegdan park. And, while in the Kalemegdan park, it is to be expected that your guide will take you to see the confluence of Dunav and Sava rivers, where one of the most recognizable Belgrade monuments is located—The Victor statue. Today you will discover one secret feature of the monument, which I like to think it was a sort of an Easter egg planted there by the sculptor. Thanks to Eniac who showed me the Easter egg, you will now also be amazed by the discovery.
