Ukraine Starting Over

  I have to admit the fact, that the entire Peace and Prosperity plan that I was working out for Ukraine in my crazy mind for some time =, it  is totally shattered. A  truly complete  reconstruction of that plan would be required at this point in time. It is still fictionally possible for everybody to pretty much make pretty  good money,  if the variant  factual, contextual differences can be set aside, but this plan cannot get reworked in 24 hours by myself working totally alone unfortunately. I need backup . and my team in Ukraine has taken losses. I don't have much real news.

These seemingly abstract places in reality exist, with numerous historical anecdotes about those places, some gapped, some bad. One has to walk the land, have your feet make the phone call to under

  Hey Folks, those few infrequent readers of my Blog, the last time that I checked MIG jets haven't been scrambled to intercept my International flights, mostly because  I haven't recently taken International flights, particularly over Russia / Belarus airspace. I am trying to remember how I got out of Belarus after my 2017 visit, I think that it was by bus. Most Americans cannot begin to appreciate the complexity of obtaining a Belarus travel Visa.
