Heading Home
Oops!
It’s hard to keep political discussions away these days.
“Just because you’re not interested in politics, doesn’t mean politics isn’t interested in you“
Headline: “Hours After Trump Paused All Arms To Ukraine, Zelensky Reportedly Ready To Sign Minerals Deal Under ‘Trump’s Strong Leadership’“
Did someone explain to Z that his life expectancy might be measured in days if he pissed off the US any further?
“Trump wants to announce agreement in his address to Congress Tuesday evening.“
Or did the Dems put him up to trying to embarrass DJT once again?
I still say that little squirrel needs an all-expenses-paid, one-way trip to Moscow.
Tunes For Tuesday – Russian Army Choir “Полюшко поле” (Meadowlands)
A sample of some obscure – and some maybe not obscure – tunes from my strange and off-the-wall collection.
Today’s selection: Russian Army Choir – Полюшко поле (aka Song of the Plains; Meadowlands)
Can’t really say I’m a Russophile but I don’t think of Russians as my enemy either – in spite of spending my childhood huddling under my desk to aid in identifying my burnt remains save me from Soviet nuclear attack. It’s a place I’d like to visit, at least St Petersburg.
Way back when … I was in 8th grade … Vietnam raging and the Soviet Union evil incarnate … I had a social studies teacher (a WWII vet) who told us that in our lifetimes, there would be a good chance that we’d see the US turn into a police state and Russia become the land of freedom. About the only thing I directly remember about 8th grade …
While that teacher has not yet been proven correct – or incorrect, I can’t say I’ve seen anything recently to disavow me from the notion that both countries seem to be on that path.
I’d much rather the US was “friends” with Russia than some of those we (supposedly) are friends with – say China and Saudi Arabia.
An 8 Year-Old’s Smile
someday home…
Jean asked that this be a response to ghostsniper’s comments about a house he designed for Deion Sanders
I want a house
with high ceilings
and low floors.
windows never
closed, no locks on the doors.
“welcome friends” on
the mat,
chairs stuffed
and comfy fat.
food in the fridge,
books on the shelves.
don’t hesitate
to help yourselves.
I’m certainly not going to disagree …
