Church of Bones

[Mrs Behavin]

This is one of the strangest churches you'll ever see. It is in the Czech Republic and decorated entirely with human bones. Real human bones, about 40,000 sets of them, that were dug up by a half-blind monk to allow room for “new guests.”

Kind of off topic, but not really. Why is the word "Czech" pronounced "check"? I would understand if it were something like "Cheque", but how does the z make it sound like it does?

I think I just puked in mouth a little.

Not that thats any worse than the church of bones. Why would people do that?
