The Ru Fed started posting on YouTube again. That makes things easier because I don't care enough to use a VPN to go to the Channel One website lol Here's Roman Savosin's Queen program, he did a pretty good job as a Freddie Mercury impersonator. https://youtu.be/TqnBSg04GDU

Evgenia Tarasova and Fedor Klimov had a daughter on 10/21. https://www.instagram.com/p/DQPIH3zDPbV

Is the junior ice dancer Varvara Slutskaya Irina's daughter? Her patronymic is Sergeevna, and I remember that Irina's first husband was named Sergei. I know that Petrova/Tikhonov's daughter is also an ice dancer, and she looks like a total 50/50 face morph of her parents so it was a lot more...

I remember something like that happening to US pair skater Jennifer Don in the early aughts. She lost part of a finger in a skating accident with her partner and she said the recovery time for a partial amputation was shorter than trying to reattach it. Pair skating = :yikes:

His back was being held together by wishes and the miracles of modern medicine the last time he competed. I guess the few years off helped him recover??

I didn't like that LP music at all, all horror covers. bleh! btw, Fedor Klimov wasn't at the test skates. Evdokimova (and Trankov) announced to the audience that Fedor and Evgenia Tarasova will have their baby any minute now.

:drama: Rachmaninov is my homeboy! He's my favorite, along with Prokofiev, but also props to Stravinsky and Shostakovich for being weirdos.

I knew a girl in college who was taking Russian because she was a Dostoyevsky superfan and wanted to learn to read his books in the original language. I started and stopped Crime and Punishment three times and never read it even when it was assigned. I don't recall liking much of Pushkin either...

When I took Russian literature, the professor would say Pushkin nashe vsyo/ Pushkin is our everything. I just typed that phrase into Google and indeed it is a real saying :lol: I think I liked Chekhov better myself, but I'm not an expert or anything, I really hated those classes lol

IMO, amongst Russians, yes. I'm not Russian though so of course @Ka3sha or someone else can tell me if I'm wrong! But that's the impression I got when I was studying Russian in college.

Donna Adelson's attorneys were chaotic messes. But the overwhelming evidence against her was her main problem.

I don't see a lot a defense attorney could do with this case. Probably just throw his ass in front of a forensic psychologist to see if they could go for an insanity plea. He's not speaking to the feds, who knows if he's willing to talk to a psychologist (or his attorney).

Aaron Lewis from Staind just recently made comments about how dare Springsteen write such an unAmerican song and I'm like, dude where were you 40 years ago? Speaking of, I'm rather certain I remember having a "Born in the USA" t-shirt when I was a little kid. I need to look and see if I can find...

I think it's because AIN could only nominate one skater and one coach with no substitutions allowed.

But her choreographers weren't. I'm pretty good at catching lyrics quickly, but otherwise that's what Google is for.
