The top photo is self-explanatory.  I've appended the bottom one for contrast/comparison.  It's NOT tornado damage:

    Third actually. I previously traced the history of the phrase "black sheep" -

    - and mentioned that the Slovak women's hockey team beat Bulgaria 82-0 -

    There's more about the Czech Republic, but I realize that's not the same...

    There are about 150 visits to this blog each month from Slovakia, most from Bratislava, but also Bresno, Kosice, Zilina, Presov, Michalovce etc., so I'd post more stuff, but I don't run across much in my sources.

    :.)
