Just watched the Victory Parade in Moscow. Amazing.

Also it was simulcasted live on the BBC news site.

Late post i know, but on days like that i just feel like saying thanks to the men and women who gave their lives (and offered them) so that i can have the chance to sit on my backside playing Hilent Hunter 4.

If only he had been accepted into that school of arts. Imagine his peers... "what a genius! It's such a pity he was just a misunderstood painter. Poor guy should have aimed for something larger, like, oh, politics...":rotfl2:

I saw the Moscow parade showing off there famous Tanks of WW2. Next year marks the somber 70th anniversary of Barbarossa and those terrible first 18 months for Russia.

People still commemorate that old crap? War in Europe it not over. It's waged nowadays in Les zones urbaines sensibles.
