Hmmm....
At a zoo in Lipetsk, south of Moscow, director Alexander Osipov said monkeys would be given wine three times a day "to protect against colds," the RIA-Novosti news agency reported. Rossiya television said a circus sea lion was being treated for pneumonia with brandy body rubs.
So I'm imagining Russian visitors to the zoo throwing vodka flasks at the monkeys instead of bread or bananas. I mean is it really a good idea for the animals to be fighting colds with the bottle?! Before we know it we'll see headlines like "Intoxicated tree monkey with BAC of .25 runs over three-year-old-child-zoo-visitor after stealing employee bicycle"...
And now they've named a car after U2's The Edge...
"The Edge look is much more in vogue," said Bell. Sharing the same Mazda6 engineering underpinnings as the Ford Fusion sedan, the Edge should drive and handle well.
The Edge will also be available in Lincoln trim as the Lincoln MKX.

What next? Ford cars with integrated ipod-stereos and U2's best of collection?!

Dear Scott, have you lived somewhen with a temperature from -35 C to -45 C for several weeks - when you cant find the warm place even in your house, when heating is not enough strong to warm the air in flats, when that heating brokes together with electrical devices? Russians did this winter, and some winters ago, and.. I think, that think, you wrote about was done not for fun, but to save animals from awful cold and death.
Your friendly Russian, with
