I hadn't meant to delete that post. was saying that nobody takes the times seriously: doesn't matter if it's the daily edition or the weekend edition.

Most Russians I know that bother reading Russian copy read Noviya Russkiya Slova--Which is actually printed in New York.

Even my grandfather dropped Pravda years ago, and he's still waiting for the second coming of Lenin.

A man checks into a Moscow hotel and upon entering his room the room service asks if there is anything he needs to make him more comfortable...

He replies "I would like some clean Lenin..."

She reples "We wanted this many decades ago and now yer Putin me on?"

*I need more material to work with.... or just a walk to the end of the pier Andropov... Stalin for applause here...*

Frankly speaking I don't know any Communist newspapers here. Zavtra and Duel are marginal nationalistic leaflets, but sometimes really funny. Long time ago I used to buy National-Bolshevik Party's "Limonka", amazing in it's sarcasm and cynicism, but now NBP joined loosers from "Other Russia" and Edward Limonov finally went off the rocker after 2 years in prison.

I can't name any decent newspaper in Russia that isn't yellow as urine and/or even pretending to be unbiased. Even Izvestia got sold several times and I don't buy it anymore.

Boroda,

My wife thinks that you get picked on too much. Just thought you should know that you've got a sympathizer.

Thanks :) I don't care about this silly things, it's only the Net. What I really like is that many people here try to understand the opposite side.

I hope you understood the joke bout tickets, blin :) Sorry, I tried to answer with a Russian joke playing with English words. And someone here doesn't know about time-zone difference between Russia and the US :D

"It is interesting to note, too, that Barksdale Air Force Base is where the United States President was 'ordered' to report to on September 11, 2001 by the United States Air Force Strategic Command prior to his being 'transferred' under 'armed escort' to Offutt Air Force Base Strategic Command Center near Omaha, Nebraska, where the first 'truce' between Americas War Leaders and its Military Forces was 'negotiated' by billionaire Warren Buffett as intermediary between the rival power blocs."

Boroda, is the current Pravda the same entity as the official news vendor of the USSR?

I always liked humor that didn't force itself upon you. Dantesque. :aok

Why ask something when you don't even read replies?
