Teach yourself Russian

This is really bizarre. Soviet era bizarreness. Gorgeous. I just wonder what native Russian speakers out there make of this...?

I want to be an ударник. Definitely not a безделник, with all the pencil stealing and the misbehaviour in parks and everything...

Neat, right down to the font. It can't be for real, surely? I would like to see 'Goodbye Lenin', supposedly treating of more soviet-era nostalgia. Or read John le Carre.

How about The Gulag Archipelago?

Real or not, it is brilliant. It actually could be real -- it does fit with what I've seen of Russian humour. I don't really care either way. It's superb.

That is fucking genius.

On a beach. In tuxedos.

With bananas, apricots, squirrels and trees. :-)

PS: I didn't leave my long blue tie dye skirt in your room in Aber. did I?

I would have noticed by now...
Or maybe not...

I'll check tonight!

Well I've checked, and my room is still proudly skirt-free since 1994! Have you lost it? Because that calls for more shopping - oh yes!
