In truth I had an American flag decal on the back window.
Not popular in the urban street parking to attend Detroit’s Wayne State University for my political science degree in the late 1960s.
I came back after class and about 10 things in the engine were vandalized, taken out or otherwise messed up.
Did you know an “oblast” is a region first named by those UK communist spies who relocated to the former Soviet Union?
When they got to their new digs, the first thing they always said was “O blast!” and their Russian friends thought it was a high compliment.
I hope you did not believe that, or anything Putin says either. :)
