You might be Miss Understanding, or Ms. America, I wouldn't be in a position to know one way or the other. Are you saying that you've won these contests already?

I think that animals speak languages also but I don't know any that speak Swiss German. I would have to check on that.

You have a point -- I haven't seen a Czech whom I didn't like.

Yes, a pair of Czechs making the scene is a sight to behold. They are a couple of wild and crazy guys.

I admire the scenes I see when I go to theater and I never knew someone who made them. What's it like to make sets? How did you get into that line of work?

It's really quite simple. A short version --------It goes 15, 30, 40, game. Win 6 games and you've got a set. Well, that's just about the gist of it without going into more details.

I don't believe that gambling pays. I suppose I am old fashioned that way. But I wouldn't take a chance on something this speculative.

Perhaps they were related to the jousters from various Eastern European countries I saw there, recreating medieval tournament scenes for tourists? They wore different kinds of armor. The Hungarian wore plate armor, the Czech was in the mail.
