Not if I included air fare.

Having fresh Czech beers in Prague, who would need [more or less stale] Guinness there?

That's why it's cheap. An attempt of dumping pricing.

I think you two should visit Prague (with appropriate chaperonage, of course :-).

The bar tab is on me! That will be the most expensive part of the sojourn.

There was an article in a recent “Runner’s World” saying that running in the Czech Republic was great. Does either of you want to exert, or would you rather drink beer and watch me run?

Good job! there's also the "Not enough coffee" excuse, and "Can't see in my new glasses" excuse, and the "Kids were yelling at me" excuse.

You have revolutionized the “flimsy excuse,” “white lie” or “fib.” Pretty soon, we can just give the number (for example, NN.102).

These are all true excuses! (I’ll bet you don’t even have running shoes ...)

Going back to the ongoing thread on good religious etiquette, I think that one of the most important skills is to back out of an argument when somebody’s going ballistic.

If you’ve genuinely been in error, or said something you didn’t intend, then a genuine retraction is in order. However, even if the response to your post is excessive or irrational, it’s still useful to pull back, deploying a Flimsy Excuse if necessary.
