Russian jackboots have marched into
Ukraine, specifically Crimea. I know most of you do not know where
exactly that is. OK, if you look at a map of the Black Sea, it kinda
looks like a football. Crimea is that dangly bit on top that kinda
looks like an island.
It is important to Russia because it
has Russian military assets. So, they invaded to protect their
interests.
When I was a kid, I enjoyed watching
snails in the garden. Their slow crawl was elegant and graceful. When
you gently touched their antenna with you fingertip, the antenna and
head would gently retract back into the shell. After a few moments,
they extend back out and continue on their slow way. Of course, mom
would then come stomping out of the house screaming: stop playing
with it! Throw it onto the ground and stomp on it, it is eating my
rosebushes! I understood very well. It merely seemed a shame.
Those of you who thought that the Iron
Curtain, the Cold War, and the Soviet Union ended when the Berlin
Wall fell and with the rise of Boris Yeltsin, think again.
Have a nice day.
