Sorry to get you stirred up.

Bi-2 is just a Russian rock band, and this is one of their older songs, which was in a movie called "Brat-2". But the song comes from a story by Gabriel Garcia Marquez - No one Writes the Colonel.

Just another obscure cultural reference for you.

Let's try to be very precise. This is very confusing.

No vague literary/pop-cult allusions without explanations!!!

Tell me about this terrorist named Polkovnik. I have a degree in Soviet Studies but it's not my profession. And I sure don't keep up with all the Caucasus feuds, the politics, the gangsters, the religious nuts.

I am stirred up! LOL. This stuff boils my blood. Thanks for explaining.

I need to sleep some and be back tomorrow, if you are both up for it.

Anyone interested in discussing chechen terrorism, links and info, please step up.

Snapple I don't know if he was a kid. Let's do more searching, if you are interested.
