  1. Pollo a la Brasa. Salsa Aji Verde.
  2. In case anyone wants to read another view point concerning Putin’s thinking. I’ve subscribed to Russian Life for years… they sent an email out today stating they would be suspending publication out of fear for the safety of their correspondents in Russia. https://www.russianlife.com/stories/online/why-putin-invaded-ukraine/?goal=0_2e99ba62b2-aff19223f1-191233569&mc_cid=aff19223f1&mc_eid=690e8fa84a
  3. That doesn’t describe energy independence. The United States was still connected to the world market.
  4. Not new and quite old, going back to Tsarist Russia - Orthodoxy, Autocracy, and Nationality
  5. The Patriarch really is a lap dog for the state.
  6. Zyuganov is a clown and not taken seriously in Russia.
  7. Into the mind of Putin: Ivan Ilyin https://www.foreignaffairs.com/articles/russian-federation/2015-09-20/putins-philosopher
  8. Good advice. If you rope drop and use Genie+ you will be fine. Also, don’t go in thinking you will do everything. There is so much to do now you have to set priorities.
  9. Not only competent but the best president of their lifetime… and Biden is the worst.
  10. He was the most moderate in the primary.
  11. Red Cavalry is a good read. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  12. It’s divided like Ukraine with the Russians controlling Transnistria.
  13. Krushchev was surprised when his end came. He didn’t see it coming.
  14. There is that Third Rome part as well.
  15. As far as continuity, it’s part of the job of everyone who works on the film to insure continuity is maintained.
  16. Watch some Godard and Ozu and then do some study of their film techniques and how they broke the rules.
  17. Watched two Errol Morris films last weekend: Gates of Heaven and Vernon, Florida. The younger son is still running the pet cemetery in California but they are rebuilding after a fire swept through the area.

    My sample size is small, but the sentiments from my Russian friends and the few Russian pages I follow express solidarity with Ukraine and loathing of Putin’s actions.
  20. They want you to pay to not wait, which we did, but it was just two of us so the extra cost wasn’t terrible.
