*rap-rap*

"McFly.... any body home?"

Yup.. we noticed over here the May Day parade in red square this past spring. 1st since the fall of the old regime, and re-introduced now that they have petro bucks to spend on uniforms and ballistic missles. All part of the new great patriotic drive for the Rodina and EMPIRE!!!TM

Didn't do an 'sweet thing about it; but we noticed.
The price of Freedom is the willingness to do sudden battle, anywhere, any time and with utter recklessness...

See this is why Skuzzy has rule #17, if you just post a video clip, especially one in a foreign language alot of people may have no clue what the point your trying to make is.

Not really.  2008 is much, MUCH better  It even surpasses the Soviet era.  Jets now fly past Red Square. 


Here's armored vehicle, rockets, and planes... in HIGH DEFINITION! :eek:

In the end you should be thankful for those players like us who switch to try and help keep things even because our willingness to do so, helps a more selfish, I want it my way player, get to fly his latewar uber ride.
