Funny Papers Again Column | Do Svidaniya, Priyatyl, Do Svidaniya

For those of us who are now in our seventh decade, and those of decades more, there are certain times in history that may influence us in often-profound ways. It stands to reason, then, that any news story which gobbled up precious air time...
