I was gonna go to town, I was gonna rest and goof off, I was gonna cut the grass and I was gonna clear some more brush. Instead, I am gonna putty and paint the windows today. That is what I am gonna do… * * * * * * * * * * This […]
Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a decree starting on August 6, 2015 – the destruction of agricultural products prohibited from being imported into the country implemented in retaliation against illegal western sanctions! Oops, wait a minute Putin: Russians overwhelmingly support the prospect of dealing with illegal food substances at the Russian border, but with giving […]
This is borscht done my way and I call it “Bear’s Borscht,” I know a certain young lady named Sveta in Moscow, who is going to see this and start wishing she was here right now. The ingredients are all from our garden and I will eat this borscht without meat, maybe tomorrow (?), I […]

A reader sent me this link to some artwork he just did. It is in response to Vova and his waving at America as a friend… The reader (Jim_D) said, “Thought I would reply in kind; except I didn’t have a rock, so I used a wooden wheelbarrow I made instead. Most of the artwork […]
I was told by Sveta that today is a day that I should not do any work. It is some important holiday in some form somewhere, that says if you work on this day, today 8-2-2015, that you will bring the wrath of God? and be hit by lightning and thunder. Then because you worked, […]
American Hegemony will not just quietly dissolve like the Soviet Union did. The more pessimistic and fearful the US becomes the more dangerous and unpredictable it will be, ready to do “stupid stuff” out of desperation to hold on while it can or poison the waters of the well (so to speak) if it can’t […]
