    @Brook! I see your Ukranian chicks and raise you with Russian and Finnish chicks. Oh my. @FinnishJET - You agree?

    I see both of these places and raise you to a little place called Ethiopia

    Sounds like Russia might be backin down, that would be good for the world

    They are declaring victory though over “western hysteria”, which is funny

    Looks like the potential sanctions, the warmer than usual weather and the uncertainty of where the tactical situation would end up have combined to make the invasion option less appealing.

    I'm sure other things have happened in the last 3 months that will not be to Ukraine's benefit but the prospect of a full-scale invasion seems to be waning.

    Galaxy brain take: Putin is planning to buy Ukraine with proceeds from insider trading US stock futures that go up and down with his decisions to escalate or descalate tensions with Ukraine.

    I wonder if part of those sanctions were seizing of all the property purchased by Russian Oligarchs (gangsters) in the West. Freezing assets, etc.

    Can't really argue with that, my friend :D

    That argument holds true as well, but I wouldn't necessarily call them chubby (at least to their faces :cool:). They are short legged, that's how I always describe them :D
    Though there was one popular Finnish porn star back in the day, Mariah was her name, she was a stunner.

    I think it's way more simple. There wasn't a chance in the world that Vladimir Putin would have initiated a military invasion during the Olympic games. Never. As in - absolutely not ever. But, we've turned the guy into this mythical character to plug-in for whatever the political narrative is that day. Vladimir Putin now doesn't have to do anything at all. We're only too happy to do it for him.

    For you Simpsons' fans - this is just Tibor on a global scale.

    At least Putin has Bob Kraft's 2005 Cheats "stolen" SB ring in the Kremlin, speaking of cheating and stealing. Gives me the warm fuzzies. Kraft: "It has my name on it. I don't want it to wind up on eBay." Hahahaha.

    Didn't Putin invade Georgia during the 2008 Olympics?

    Pretty sure he did.

    Actually Georgian forces attacked separtist forces in south ossetia. Russian 'peace keepers' in south ossetia reacted swiftly crippling the georgian military and driving to within 40kms of Tblisi i believe. Their rapid reaction indicates that they had prepped for just such an attack by Georgia and were ready to take advantage of it. Whether they knew it was coming or not i don't know. Still it was an easy victory for russia.

    I spend half my week on conference calls with hot Hungarian IT chicks. First off, the fact that there are hot IT chicks anywhere on the planet blows my mind. But yeah, Budapest gets me going in the morning.
