 |

Hi guys! I'm collecting stupid questions you have received about Russia (or if you do have a stupid question yourself, just ask) so I can write stupid answers to them. 
All questions that have answers will be posted here: http://akula-v-rossii.blogspot.com/
There're a few samples up already.
Have fun!
Are there bears in Russia? What about the mafia? Vodka anybody? They're all covered in http://akula-v-rossii.blogspot.com/

Send the pics this way!
Too much free time? Skip, you can't imagine the amount of time I saved by replying all the stupid questions I get through the singapore-russia website with a url of my blog.
Seriously you don't have a stupid question you want to add? |

Ok guys,
I'm currently looking for the following photos:
1. the scene in Rambo III where the Russian soldiers are wearing their fur hats in Afghanistan.
2. something that suggests a bear roaming in an urban area
3. a russian (or russian-looking) construction worker digging in a tin can of something (has to be obscure enough) during lunch
4. a room decorated with glo-in-the-dark objects--especially stars |

Hmm which would sound worse?
"We speak English and only English here.'
And the poor traveller forgets to pack a phrase book
or
"We speak Russian and only Russian here."
And the poor traveller worries himself to death that the phrase book isn't going to contain enough phrases...

You just have to watch any James Bond movie to see that everyone in the world speaks English, just with different accents:). |
