On the subject of stamps with questionable messages...
Who could have guessed that the brotherly love of 1968 had spread all the way into the Soviet army, and that they decided to make a stamp to mark the occasion? :)

Actually they celebrated the 50th anniversary of the red army.

hey O.K., the picture is not showing up!
Fixed. I think... (I saw it all the time but i probably had it in my cache).
That surely looks like a French kiss, not a Russian one!
According to a russian survey, a russian kiss is a "very long and passionate kiss without spit or snot." A Russian kiss "makes your head spin, it makes you feel as if you are falling down and you do not have to analyze, where your lips are and where your tongue is."
And as shown by Putin, they aren't too picky of who, where and why.
Or maybe it is the all the vodka?
Pentagon might have something to do with it too. ;)
Snot? Which kisses involve snot? I read the Gay Bomb story yesterday. I am just sighing over here.....
I hope this kiss didn't involve snot or saliva. It's enough that it involves Brezhnev and Honecker. ;)
Used to(?) decorate the Berlin wall. On the East German side that is...
It seems to be there still, in a modified but not improved state. :(
