My sister toured the Hermitage several years ago and was surprised at how dirty it was. Hopefully, they have cleaned up their act since then.

He now sits majestically in his throne-like bed, answering to the name Viscount.

Cats naturally gravitate to their proper place in life. I miss mine terribly even after several years.

I visited the Hermitage last summer and was completely awed. It sis not strike me as dirty.

Part of being a Communist is revering those who suffer the most under what they accept as a legitimate and necessary system of rule. A kind of perverted honor, not for the underdog who is striving to succeed, but for those who simply suffer.

Fatalism is also part of the democrats sick version of morality. They have accepted being losers. That's how they can think that those who succeed must be crooks or 'steeling from the poor'.

I wonder how many were left after the 900 day siege of Leningrad by the Nazi’s.

I think about 1 million people starved.

Oh. I’m sorry to hear that. It’s so hard to have to say goodbye to our furry family members. I’ve had to do it so many times. It never gets easier to do. : (

I’m not looking forward to that day.

Hopefully not for 15 more years.
