Pivo makes me stupid!!!!

After the pivo (beer), I was in need of the WC and I was directed up a windy flight of steps to the second floor - the bartender followed up behind me to turn the lights on in the hall way.  There was no one else around so I entered and locked the stall behind me.  When I was done, I turned the lock but the door didn't open.  I tried again and again - the lock made a noise like it was opening but the door wouldn't push open.  Well, this is a fine situation that I had gotten myself into - locked in a bathroom on a dark second floor of a bar in the Czech Republic.  I kept turning the lock and pushing the door with no success.  I knew no one was around on the second floor but I also knew that eventually Dave would miss me and come looking for me.  So I kept turning the lock and pushing the door.  Then I started knocking on the door and turning the lock and pushing the door.  Then as panic began to set in, I started yelling - HELLOOOOO - is anyone there???  Knock, knock, knock ...... I'm locked in here ......  anyone?????

By now, I was on the verge of freaking out!!!  I told myself to calm down and try this all again.  I looked at the door analytically and noticed that there were no hinges on it ..... hmmmm ...... if there are no hinges, how does it open???  Ohhhh ..... could it be???  So, instead of pushing the door, I slid the door and ...... it opened!!!!!!   YAY!!!!!!   I was free!!!!!!!!!!!  But wait a minute, if I slid it to get out, I must have slid it open to get in ..............

The moral of this story is ....... beware of Czech beer because.........  PIVO makes me STUPID!

All I can say is ..... I'm so glad no one heard me knocking and yelling ...... crazy Americans!!!  Pivo makes them stupid!!!!
