First video, is the landing. They say soft, but you will see it kinda smack down at the end. But all is well if everything works. And it does…

God help the world for we really need his help right now, as the U.S. and the E.U. play the most deadly game in history. For never has so much firepower been available to deal with sick and schizophrenia countries. For as we all know that there is just not enough medicine and therapy to stabilize the U.S.
January 14th is the Old New Year! I told you we have lots of holidays and now we get another New Year. This is the New Year that comes after the Real Christmas as the Orthodox say! 🙂
So Happy New Year: The fireworks will be flying tonight!
With so much humanity concentrated in such a small area, I have learned to try to shop early. Mainly groceries…
Thus when I go out to walk and see the world. This is what I see, instead of 10,000,000 people and cars all jostling for space in the city. This country boy knows how to survive… 😉
I also love this next picture…
Just buy your contacts that you want. If you know your prescription then just buy them. If you don’t know your prescription? Buy them anyway!
It is the Russian way of life. You stupid and buy the wrong stuff, then you are stupid and no one else has to suffer from your stupidity. Other words, lawsuits are basically non-existent and things like machines to sell (not a -) prescriptions like this are a product of a life that is free of lawsuit harassment…
Unlike in America, Russians are still held accountable for their stupidity acts and no one is a scapegoat for your actions…
Granted you should go and get a eye examine to see what prescription you need, but still, if you are stupid, you are stupid and it is (prescription) not required to buy contacts… (Just like any and or all my heart/diabetes medicines are non prescription…)
As Svetochka would say, “That is just right!”

PS: Lots of stuff can be bought this way in Russia. It makes life a whole bunch easier…
This is how we start the process to overthrow a government around the world. The USA/Americans do not recognize the legitimacy of the government and so decide to over throw them for their own good. They then ultimately end up attacking in the name of USA and her righteousness as the only God Given Good on Earth and kill a bunch of people, as they stuff Democracy up their asses… They did the same in Syria, Ukraine, Libya and many more and look how well that they have all turned out. They did not turn out as anything but death and disaster…
The United States condemns Maduro’s illegitimate usurpation of power today following the unfree and unfair elections he imposed on the Venezuelan people on May 20, 2018. The United States remains steadfast in its support of the Venezuelan people and will continue to use the full weight of U.S. economic and diplomatic power to press for the restoration of Venezuelan democracy.
Today, we reiterate our support for Venezuela’s National Assembly, the only legitimate branch of government duly elected by the Venezuelan people. It is time for Venezuela to begin a transitional process that can restore the constitutional, democratic order by holding free and fair elections that respect the will of the Venezuelan people.
To advance this goal, the United States has taken aggressive action against the Maduro regime and its enablers. Most recently, on January 8, the United States imposed sanctions on seven individuals and 23 entities involved in a corruption scheme to exploit Venezuela’s currency exchange practices. By rigging the system in their favor, these individuals and entities stole more than $2.4 billion as the Venezuelan people starved. We applaud the initiative by the new National Assembly leadership to work with the international community to recover these and other stolen funds and to use them to relieve the suffering of Venezuela’s people. The United States will continue to play an active role towards this end.
We also have implemented and will continue to impose visa revocations and other restrictions for current and former Venezuelan government officials and their family members believed to be responsible for or complicit in human rights abuses, acts of public corruption, and the undermining of democratic governance. We will not allow them to act without consequence or enjoy their ill-gotten gains in the United States – and urge other countries to act likewise.
It is time for Venezuelan leaders to make a choice. We urge those who support this regime, from every day employees getting by on food subsidies to the Venezuelan security forces sworn to support the constitution, to stop enabling repression and corruption and to work with the National Assembly and its duly elected leader, Juan Guaido, in accordance with your constitution on a peaceful return to democracy. The Venezuelan people and the international community will remember and judge your actions. Now is the time to convince the Maduro dictatorship that the moment has arrived for democracy to return to Venezuela.
An infant pulled out of the rubble alive has regained consciousness a week after an explosion sent a section of an apartment block crashing in the industrial city of Magnitogorsk, Russia’s top health official said Monday. The infant, between 10 and 11 months old according to various reports, was found with a frostbitten leg and a head injury on New Year’s Day after 35 hours spent in the freezing cold. The pre-dawn Dec. 31 blast, believed to be caused by a gas leak, killed 39 residents of the Soviet-era a
Had to walk across town to get more test strips for my sugar tester. Diabetes is no fun, but you don’t need fun all the time to have a good life. Right?
About -12 below zero and lots of people were out walking everywhere. It was a good walk, we even took a short bus ride to make life more interesting. We ended up at Globus and ate dinner there. Good stuff… (We walked about 8 kilometers total.)
The tester I use has very limited places to get test strips in Moscow. In the tiny Russian Village no issue to get these strips, but as with some particular items, Moscow has regulations imposed upon certain things. Mainly political/money issues that do not rear their head in the rest of Russia…
I have said many times, “Moscow is not Russia!”
You have Russia then you have Moscow and the two do not mix all the time….it is interesting to watch and see and deal with….perfect example is these test strips; They are normal stock in the villages, but in Moscow there is literally only one place to get them and no one else will carry them and or care to carry them. We are lucky that the one spot is close by…
This same type of issue applies to milk, soda, coffee and to make it clear, just about any food items, drugs, tools and well anything…
I got use to certain items and found no issues in the villages with getting certain drugs and stuff. Once I came to Moscow again. I found that I had to change things, because items are not sold in Moscow that are sold in the villages. This expands to the Moscow area also…
We have some favorite soft drinks/lemonade available in the Russian small villages and it is unavailable in Moscow… 🙁
We have fantastic sterilized milk that comes from Ryazan, Russia and you could not find it for your life in Moscow, Russia but, I can find it all over the rest of Russia otherwise. Moscow milk is not up to the quality that villagers take for granted and Svetochka and I will buy cases of milk to have in Moscow. The milk from Ryazan is that good…
Why is this? Dunno, don’t care, Moscow’s loss, is how I look at it…
We got our strips and ordered 10 more boxes w/100 strips each and they will call when they get in. Time to stock up….by the way, the strips I use are extremely good quality at a extremely good cheap price. The meter was reading almost perfect to what the doctors came up with as they tested my blood sugar levels themselves recently. I cannot say that about all other meters I have used in the past…
I miss the Tiny Russian Village. Image above reminds me, I have to rebuild the stove this next summer… 😉
Trump Tweets and this happens. Trump goes on national TV and this happens. Trump does any damn thing and this happens….unless he is killing and blowing up people in other countries….then it happens in happiness…
Same song for both occasions…,then as I remember the music….I remember Benny Hill…
