Promethean ping.

[aculeus]

Darling Vera is really a poet as this (slightly edited) version shows:

Seminozhenko handed to Viktor Chernomyrdin
a figurine
symbolizing the fire stolen by Prometheus.

From some unknown reasons the figurine was matched
with a Samsung
and presents from Brocard perfumery shops.

> was also awarded to the head of Vatican, pope John Paul II and Council of Europe’s Secretary General Walter Schwimmer

So, the Pope who is the head of the Vatican gets second billing behind Viktor Chernomyrdin, but nudges out Walter Schwimmer. Sounds as if the Pope needs a few more Prometheii in his plenipotentiary.
