A survivor of six heart attacks and a brain tumor, a grumpy bear of a man, whom has declared Russia as his new and wonderful home. His wife is a true Russian Sweet Pea of a girl and she puts up with this bear of a guy and keeps him in line. Thank God for my Sweet Pea and Russia.

Thoughts as I walked this morning in TRV…

1. Other foreign politicians in the world don’t make up foreign enemies for domestic purposes? Hmm…how very odd for the USA… 2. ~~Man I hate those white Christian Russians, can’t we do more??? Those Russians are even embracing capitalism!~~ 3. Admit it, you really don’t know what the heck is going on and neither do […]
