Windows to Russia

Summer is pleasant in Moscow… Russians leave the big city and go to their dachas and villages. This is tradition and it is good for the children. Children are still raised in Russia to touch the land and see nature for what it is… This makes Moscow a different world… Parking is available almost anywhere. […]

You ask for information and I always give it to you. Thanks from Boza and us for the concern… Boza just went to his doctor. The results are good, in fact so good that the doctor said if it keeps going, probably no surgery needed…. The puff test was good… When Boza feels pain, he […]

I have been doing serious studying. This spiral to the great drain of life, downwards goes the Western Empire. This is not just an American phenomenon. It is a Western one.

Its very title – “Countering America’s Adversaries Through Sanctions Act” – speaks for itself. Its initiators are trying to impress on the US public a certain image of our country. This is a very short-sighted […]

Persistence is important. Possibly a few choice words and some immediate prayers to the lessor gods help also? Maybe sacrifice or two on the gods alters might help at the same time, but I decided not to go that far…. Sammy the Volga is done… The final piece of the journey to rebuild Sammy, was […]

Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said… “You can see what is going on inside the United States, how big fight is going on there, and [the fight] is very lengthy, not in terms of the past but in terms of the future — [it is the fight] for the White House… It is necessary to escalate some story in the country, to speak about their potential steps, […]

It actually is very simple… (Just one example of thousands and thousands.) I like the Russian cola. It is pretty good and the Coke/Pepsi is okay also. But in this particular case Coke (hard to find diet in villages) is sugar based and the Russian cola is no sugar, no calories and yes, Coke Zero […]
