Billy Joel (1977): Releases the song Vienna on his major album "The Stranger."
Billy Joel (2024): Hey, let's make a music video for that song I released 47 years ago.
In Vienna, where I will take the night train to Braşov in Romania. Visited the Albertina Modern museum. Not too large, which is great. Exhibition focusing on diversity. Now having goulash and beer at Cafe Hawelka. Then possibly cake. #Interrail
Good night from #Vienna 🇦🇹 - and from on board the #ÖBB#nightjet to #Bregenz. This is one of the very stylish new #DaNi (for DayNight I’m told) trainsets. I’m travelling in a “basic” sleeper compartment which, despite being labelled basic, comes with en-suite facilities.
Fugitive #Wirecard COO Jan #Marsalek used compromised intelligence officials in #Vienna to spy on European citizens and plot break-ins and assassinations by elite Russian hit squads. He also obtained a #Nato government’s cutting-edge cryptography machine and smuggled stolen senior Austrian civil servants’ phones to #Moscow.
Former Austrian intelligence official Egisto Ott, now taken into custody, supplied information to Jan #Marsalek on the address and security arrangements of Christo #Grozev, an investigative journalist resident in #Vienna who - via @Bellingcat - exposed #Russia’s attempted assassination of Sergei Skripal and other #GRU operations. Marsalek used the info to co-ordinate an elite “seal” squad of #FSB agents who broke into Grozev’s apartment and stole a laptop + USB sticks.
Budapest seems like a nice city to live in. It is very similar to Vienna but has a bit of a worn down vibe to it. That may sound rude but I actually like that. I don't like super posh shiny and clean (which is one of the reasons I could never live in Zürich, this city gave me the creeps).
The main difference between #Vienna and #Budapest? In Budapest both sides of the #Danube are nice.
How many people can you offend with one toot? Thomas: yes.
