So President Biden is leaving Warsaw today.

 

Well, there was said a lot about UKR, BLR, RUS so no need to repeat myself I think.

 

Here in Poland, from Polish persperctive, we have this sort-of "Quiet Before the Storm" feeling. Hopefully i'm overreacting but if i'm wrong, that's good in this case. If it is a better scenario lying ahead - I will be "pleasantly disappointed".

 

Anyway, even if we are not in the danger zone yet and we won't get there immediately, I can say sth like this:

today is 22/02/2023.

And imagine that this is 22/02/1923.

From this perspectiive year 2039 (aka 1939) looks pretty long time ahead... but...

 

well, we can't do much about it, the only thing we can do is to move abroad before it's hot here.

 

Today we stay.

 

And that's all for now.

My best greetings to all the users from :MDA

stay safe please. hopefully your country was mentioned repeatly during last days' events for no real reason. And eventually nothing's gonna happen in Kiszyniów (Chisinau/Kishinev) and around.

Cool! But.....where's that bread with salted butter or whatever the good folks of Slovakia give their guests upon arriving? :d 

haha probably at the airport.

 

Anyway, I loved especially the part where the guy with the sabre talked in slovak to your king inviting him for the inspection :p but it looks he understood.

 

After the anthems

Nice :d 

 

Although the former 'Prins Pils' ('Prince Beer', basically) might prefer to skip that and go straight to the bar :lol:

    • Yes, he is ones of the first supporters of Milei, owner of one of the most important stock market of Argentina (Bull market), he was peronist and for "unknown reasons" start to be libertarian.   Even being libertarian in my case, i have to admit that him is one of the dumbest of "Milei supporters" and a clown when  he is in TV, he made me feel  embarrassed in many occasions.   Camila Giorgi being with him is.......inconceivable.
    • Ya but the replacement is Pat Bondi, a choice that is only better in so far as Pat Bondi isn't credibly accused of having had sex with multiple underaged girls.   Also, you might recognize this name: Pete Hoekstra has been nominated to be the US ambasador to Canada.
    • Camila Giorgi has a new BF Ramiro Marra. Apparently he's some politician/journalist from Argentina. One of Milei's supporters dare I say? @LDOG@konig            
    • Skeleton Tour moves on to Yanqing  this weekend.  Asian Cup races tomorrow, then the World Cup on Saturday, and then possibly more Asian Cup next weekend before everyone moves over to Altenberg for the start of the full Skeleton / Bobsleigh tour again. 
    • 2-1.   But it's good to have a great champion in the squad. I've been waiting for this my whole life. I wish we had such stars in every sport.
    • But he beat Mouat, who seems to be almost unbeatable 
    • Argentina has a really solid lineup, especially if they have prepared seriously for this event. Of course they don't have a champion like we do, but in this format it is enough to win 1 match to play the decisive doubles.
    • Today we must to beat Argentina. It looks like Sinner will have to win all the singles and doubles for us to defend the title. So far, the 2nd and 3rd favorites before the tournament have already been eliminated: Esp and USA.
