President Zelensky is a hero

[Buster Crabbe's Uncle]

I could take 100 bucks out of the bank and buy Serb's house at this point.

Do it. Doit. DOOIIIT!

[Wezil]

It's not such a great deal when it comes with an angry Russian groundskeeper.

[Dinner]

Not to mention he lives in Novosibirsk, or at least did last I heard, which is cold as hell.

[ZEE]

Kiev falls in the next day or 2. No way they withstand that 40-mile convoy of tanks.

MOTHER: Why has it been so long since you responded? Are you really in training exercises?


SON: Mama, I'm no longer in Crimea. I'm not in training sessions.


MOTHER: Where are you then? Papa is asking whether I can send you a parcel.


SON: What kind of a parcel, Mama, can you send me?


MOTHER: What are you talking about? What happened?


SON: Mama, I'm in Ukraine. There is a real war raging here. I'm afraid. We are bombing all of the cities together, even targeting civilians. We were told that they would welcome us, and they are falling under our armored vehicles, throwing themselves under the wheels and not allowing us to pass. They call us fascists. Mama, this is so hard.

I out it more at five but the invasion is only the opening phase. After that comes the unconventional warfare and we do not know if Putin will try to.take.all or will, for instance, leave a rump Ukrainian state west of the Deiniper.

Ukrainian Nazis threatened to Maidan Zelensky if he ended the war in eastern Ukraine

and I suspect maybe the USA was telling Zelensky to keep the war going

[Uncle Sparky]

Link? The **new** twit-Trump?

[-Jrabbit]

Berz is throwing around the term "Nazi" pretty indiscriminately here, not unlike Kid trying to describe a liberal Democrat.

Source?

[BeBMan]

His source is probably Radio Yerevan

[Wezil]

I'd guess Billy Bob's Bogus Blog but more likely a crap Youtube video.

[Wezil]

Anyone know when the Moscow Exchange is planning on reopening?

Russia has been keeping it closed so the floor doesn't fall out.

[BeBMan]

IIRC it's still closed today, but no idea what's next

Let's hope the new Russian pres. will reopen it very soon...

[Wezil]

We'll be able to buy the country at discount rates.

Just have to figure out how to get the cash there. I'm thinking bills tied to pigeon legs.

[-Jrabbit]

Russia is talking about going crypto as a way to skirt monetary sanctions.

[Wezil]

That should be fun.

I was wondering what Russians used as units of trade before currency. Beads, shells, women...

[Buster Crabbe's Uncle]

That'd be a one-way trip, sending money wrapped around food.

[Wezil]

I'll hire Serb to be my contact on that end. As long as he only takes a reasonable share/cut (what's a few extra Roubles?).

He can eat the bird.
