It's a political decision. It has outraged a lot of conservatives (in the Russian sense of the word). Most people think he should be buried and the mausoleum turned into a museum.

 

Wasn't putting Stalin into the mausoleum alongside Lenin the former's decision? He was in there a few years (now he's about 20 meters away).

Turn On's:

 

- my wife and I snuggled up

- glass of wine, good music and romantic inclinations

- rereading the new edition of Super Imperialism, Henry C.K. Lui on monetary policy, updates on the housing market

-dancing and laughing for no particular reason

-Pondering and hoping the Ronald Reagan suffered horribly. (His son was on Larry King speaking against Ron's policies and that of the Bush administration)

- free music and movies

- the kids not calling for months on end.

 

 

Turn Offs

 

-Poor bonded books whose pages come out.

 

-Necromancy.

 

 

Don't the living suppose to bury the dead and not put them on display.

 

I forget what I remember. Didn't Lenin's ear or something fall off?

 

I did read about two maybe three year ago about Stalin's comeback . . . at the behest of the military. Underneath the geopolitical consideration is profound economics called "I want to keep my job, perks and pension."

 

I am not against "jobs, perks and pension."

 

Rehabilitation . . . here's an interesting word . . . when applied to someone that is already dead.

 

I think about my first marriage and rehabilitating the dead and shake my head.
