1. Um... yes. The Prague metro system when i was there in 96. Advise: visit Prague, it's beautiful. (well, the suburbs aren't, but the old town centre is)
2. Being an ignorant Dutchman, I don't kniw what these jokes about the chicken and the road are all about. Could someone clear this up?
3. I'd be glad to forget such a thing. I'm not a great fan of being amongst geeks wearing badly tailored Darth Vader outfits and even more geeks brandishing their plastic lightsabers. No thanks.
4. The creutzfeld-jacob virus. Or bacteria. But don't blame him, he didn't know what he was doing.
5. In the ABC studios?
6. Yes. If our cat is hungry we obey. But she's on diet food now so she doesn't always get what she wants, but we ignore her moaning.
7. man next door died?
8. The rare occasions of playing mini golf still haunt me at night, and I dare not sleep. Or crazy golf, whatever.
9. Breed ugly chicks that, through genetic defects, are, thank god, unfertile and die horrible deaths?
10. Never heard of the infamous drinking game.. but I don't drink, so that probably has to do with it.

RW: With regard to the chicken-crossing-the-road, you must have the full background.
Q: Why did the chicken cross the road?
A: To get to the other side!
<rimshot>
It's a very old, and barely funny joke. This joke has perhaps plagued mankind since the Romans coined it in 146 B.C. to commemorate the final defeat of the Carthaginians.
Back then it went like this (translated into English, of course):
Q: Why did the Carthaginian cross the Medditerranian Sea?
A: To escape the brave Roman Legions who followed and slew them to the last man, woman, and child!
Of course, the joke loses something in the translation, but if you were an ancient Roman, it was a real knee-slapper.
