Putin’s hostility to the Homintern must be getting on your nerves.

The Soviets were the first to photograph the far side of the moon, which allowed them to name the most prominent features.

I remember my mother at the time thinking they had faked it.

It crashed so hard that it splashed raw egg all over Putin’s face.

But continuing the tradition, they never landed on the moon.

There go Putin’s plans for denazifying the Moon once and for all. Guess they’ll just have just fire some missiles at it while our Russia-luvin’ FReepers claim the Moon was asking for it by being a globohomo, corrupt celestial body.

Well, I guess ya' might be on to something. Remember those cartoons where the Moon would give the viewer a little wink? Now we know!!! (/s)

Roscosmos said it wanted to show Russia “is a state capable of delivering a payload to the moon"

Well, they did, but...

I’m sorry, that’s the wrong answer. I don’t work for you.

But we have the home version of our game and some lovely parting gifts for you backstage.

Thank you for playing Love the Communist.

It’s amusing somewhat around here. All these expensive developments have a pond or lake (to catch the runoff, I suppose). Major attraction for the Canada geese. So the homeowners are constantly having their yards and patios covered with the “presents” from the geese. God help you, if you kill one of them, tho. They must be a “protected” species (feces?).

Whatever attracts them is a food source and the obvious result. When I was a child they apparently always migrated south in the winter but they’ve somehow learned that food is available here in the city area and they stay year round and no longer migrate like they used to. The other day I saw a flock of them waddling across a part of an exit to a mall onto the main road and they were holding up some cars while going from one grassy area to another. Fortunately I was on the other side of the road so they weren’t blocking me. Even so just waddling they seemed entitled and looked like they owned the road they were crossing.

Lately a flock has camped out on the soccer fields and play ground by our Catholic Church. Hate to be a kid playing on that ground.
