Terrific news on the Western Front. Looks like the conscript army is folding somewhat. And the Chechen leader doesn't sound happy with Putin. How significant (or accurate) is the Brit. news report that several thousand Chechen soldiers have been sent to Moscow (to reinforce security for UKW)?

and, this might sound silly, but what the fuck is the deal with these Ferris wheels. there are Ferris wheels blighting the London skyline. Paris has one, and it looks like shit. at this point, since the Manhattan skyline (which is definitely about as "iconic" as things get, and "iconic" is a word I almost always refuse to use in this new-ish lazy broadcaster and just-as-lazy reporter misuse of the word, although using it to apply to a visual phenomenon is closer to the original meaning...I am nothing if not pedantic) has been completely ruined by these new and completely hideous buildings that look like giant hypodermic needles, when are we gonna get OURS? remember: "You never know how great a kiss can feel/Till you stop at the top of the Ferris wheel?" obviously I do (Freddy Cannon/"Palisades Park").
I can see why you donтАЩt like the way the giant Ferris wheels change a cityтАЩs skyline. I will say that I rode the London wheel twenty years ago, and it provides spectacular views of the city from heights otherwise unavailable except by helicopter.
In addition to David's explanation, Putin reportedly opened a very expensive Ferris wheel in Moscow and was criticized for doing so instead of spending the money on his troops. In a show of poetic justice, the wheel broke down about 5 hours after it opened.

Hadn't heard that, but it seems "prudential" on Putin's part. When the dam breaks, he's going to be swept away in the flood.
from your mouth, Tom, to wherever.

Ah. I was insufficiently informed to get David LevineтАЩs allusion. Got it now. Thanks!
obviously because I'm weird.
David, at least TC тЭдя╕П your train of thought.
