Hey, you forgot me Germany baby. 4.30 a.m. when Blazers games starts. But this year my excitement is extremely low for this team, although i love my Blazers

 

I spent a couple of weeks there in the late 70's. Nice town in the mountains IIRC. I was traveling with a friend who had a friend in the art school there. Lots of ex-pats living there then

 

In NBA league pass is concerned , I'm watching these games from India.

 

That was some impressive free throw shooting last night from both teams. What an embarrassment.

 

No, I moved out of Crimea when the Russians took over and now live in Spokane.

 

Do you miss the caviar there?

 

now is the time to move Dame. Why? it’s clearly rebuilding time.

 

Our house is two blocks away from Instituto Allende! It’s beautiful here however we may move once again - to Spain!

 

I miss my community garden that had a view of a lake and the Black Sea and Bear Mountain and a lot birds in the nearby forests. Last night I dreamed I got back there somehow and I wanted to see what had changed in my garden in the last 7 1/2 years.

 

I often dream of and miss my old homes in Hawaii and Taiwan ....a place becomes a part of your DNA after calling it home!

 

@UKRAINEFAN Wasn't Leonid Brezhnev Ukrainian?

 

I know Krushchev was; there was a beautiful statue of him sitting on a bench with his grandson in the park near me; I'm guessing the Russians have taken it down; they are still mad at him for dissing Stalin.

 

I see Brezhnev was also born in Ukraine. Oh, another reason Krushchev unpopular with Russians; he is the one who gave Crimea to Ukraine!

 

I'm not sure...I just remembered vaguely from history classes I'd taken about Breshnev speaking praisingly about his homeland and I thought it was Ukraine...good chance he did that, I'd have to look it up.
