My attempts to revive this blog so far left a lot to be desired. I guess one of the reasons might be found in generally depressive or, at best, utterly serious tone of this blog's content. So, I when opportunity rose for something completely different, or, at least, a content that anyone - except the most prudish - would find amusing I decided to take it.
One such opportunity is a Youtube video featuring Maja Poljak, Mirela Delić, Sanja Popović and Senna Ušić - members of Croatian Women Volleyball team. The team didn't have much success at the latest European Championship, but that apparently didn't affect their spirit or ability to compensate their poor athletic results with impressive display of other talents.
Needless to say, this video received great deal of publicity in all Croatian media. It is really refreshing to see a news story that finally doesn't have anything to do with bad state of Croatian economy, corrupt and inefficient government, crime, Ustashas vs. Partisans or... Unfortunately, since the artist providing the musical background happens to be Bosnian Serb singer Mile Kitić, I'm certain that some prudish commentators would find ample reasons to associate words like "national disgrace", "treason", "depravity" or "rape of Croatian culture" with the video.
