Hehe that is great! What a strange feeling to be at the same time glad and embarrassed for giving you such elements to build on. That said, I'm probably going to experience a whole array of strange feelings very soon anyway.

Also, that may be due to the fact i'm not a native english speaker, but i felt that it would sound better if Travolta was the 'Soviet Supreme', instead of regular 'Supreme Soviet'. But maybe that's just me, so do as you please.

Yeah English is backwards compared to most other European languages (or maybe most other languages period).

Like in Spanish, its 'El Pollo Loco'...but in English that translates to 'The Chicken Crazy', even though it MEANS 'The Crazy Chicken'.

Soviet Supreme sounds funny to me, probably the same way Supreme Soviet sounds funny to you, haha!

Buuuuuuttttt.....now that I think about it....Soviet means like a congress or union or council.  So Supreme Council would mean more than one person...Council-Member Supreme does sound more like a title for one person.  So that means then that the Stonecutters are the Supreme Soviet (the highest council) and it is headed by the Soviet Supreme (the council chairman).  Ill go with that.

Okay, Ive probably confused everyone now!  lol

I'm not the only person who thought that a Soviet Supreme was a type of Russian Big Mac, am I?

A quarter pound of yak beef slathered in borscht.  You've never had a burger like this comrade!

And if you question us, you never will again!

That was the 40s of course. Things were different then.

It's important to make a distinction between Germanic and Romance Languages here.  In my experience, when most people are told to think of a European language, they think of Spanish, French, Italian, or some other romance language.  These languages have no problems with adjects behind nouns.  In my experience, however, Germanic languages all tend to agree with their red-headed cousin, English, when it comes to this.

Anyway, this is page 69?  It's 21 for me ;)

But then, life was also easier when I was running around here pretending to be a man, so I guess I should just "man up" and get back to work.

This is basically how my family makes borscht. A giant hunk of meat in the borscht, either beef or chicken (whatevers in the fridge) and its delicous.

Neat gin and steak sandwich, or possibly Theakston's Old Peculier and a big cheese sandwich with chutney.

I've finished reading the epic saga of Blockedlance, and now I'm eagerly awaiting the next chapter.

It's time for the Duchess to be stuck with 'inspiration' and name herself 'Moose' and talk in the third person!  ;D

Sorry...the Duchess is taken.  You can be one of her daughters if you want, though!  :)
