Indeed mutato nomine de te fabula narratur :lol:

Excellent article as always dear Brian!

"Members of the great unwashed masses"
Indeed!
Unfortunately too many of them around recently.
All they care about is "how much?", "is it simply rare or extra super rare?"...

Best,
Nick

Nice entry Brian!
Many thanks

But don't you know that collecting is simply a mental disorder?
Looks like you are now heading toward recovery

Cheers,
Nick

What in the name of all that's pagan is this tosh doing at the top of my GMIC page?

Another tolerate Christian?

"and they shouted back, "Crucify Him"!"

Simply the luck of the draw...

Nope. You are current feature

P.S. Down with the commies!

"GMIC is eight years old next month ..."

Hey Nick!

Could you please tell us the exact date, so we all could celebrate
And another thing - if possible, could you make a pre-jubilee post in your blog about the origins of GMIC.
I think it will be interesting not only to Moscovites

Best,
Nick

"... anyone, other than me, know what the "PMR" is? ..."

Pridnestrovskaya Moldavskaya Respublika?
Република Молдовеняскэ Нистрянэ


a.k.a Приднестровская Молдавская Республика (rus)
a.k.a. Придністровська Молдавська Республіка (ukr)

Have a nice vacation Greg!

P.S.

...I never give lifts but felt sorry for a hitchhiker. He - for some reason, that I am sure he regretted later - started to tell me his 'life story' - which included that he had just escaped from prison. He got quite a fright when I told him I was Police and handcuffed him.Mervyn

Nice story. Thanks Grag. Now I don`t need to ask why your primery interest USSR and ex-communist block countries ... Even GMIC logo resembles KGB honor badge :)

"Many changes; and most, I fear, will not work out at all."

You said it! Same story here. Maybe only with a little higher order of stupidity and incompetence. Day- and-night-around-the-clock.

"Still, it is a paycheck..."

Exactly! Sometimes you don`t have even that (my life story all way throught 90s).

"...this are some rough times ..."

I think soon enough we`ll see something much much worse... But don`t worry - I`ve got your back So far only in Moscow...But who knows... With all this globalisation nonsence

P.S. How you become so interested in faleristics?

P.P.S. Sorry for my importunity

Hi, Greg! Love your style!

Keep it up!

"I began work with the State (Virginia) and am currently a Sergeant in a maximum security prison for... women "

Cool! This sounds exactly like my job... University... Only mine is much more dangerous - I don`t have a gun
