ukraine = bread basket of russia (or at least stalin thought so!!) :) :)
Actually, Stalin created an artificial famine in Ukraine that killed off half the population 8O

Kazakhstan actually produced a large amount of grain for the USSR... Khrushchev plowed the northern third of the country in the Virgin Lands campaign.

i did actually know that morb.........i was trying to shout out random political quotes/taglines from history, in the mould of "52 US states(!!)" and "lebensraum"

or for anyone with amibitions to conquer Europe (a la Napoleon or Hitler)

........JUST FORGOT ABOUT RUSSIA :D
...or at the very least, TAKE SOME WARM CLOTHES! :lol:

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

and if you just have to go there and try and conquer the gigantic country...........avoid winter months.

or better still plan your whole strategic attack on russia but not leave enough time to win before the onset of winter........sure it seemed like a good idea at the time adolf. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

mala suerte
 
For years I used to think there were 51 states...

all down to bloody The The, on their Infected Album.... one track kept repeating "this is the 51st state of the USA"

God I loved that album - gonna have to hunt it out again.... 8)

Absolutely amazing album. Probably his best work, though Mind Bomb (with Johnny Marr) is a close second.

...and I was just thinking when this thread started that song might be why some people in the UK had the number of states wrong ;)

I cant believe its been banished away in the back of my dessicated brain and it took a post on here to remind me of one of the most brilliant albums I have ever heard.....
:lol: :lol:
Mind Bomb, in its own way is exceptional but Infected is just pure delight, I used to travel to work on public transport back in the olden days and listen to this album on my walkman - made the 2hr journey bearable....

Only own the album on vinyl, just ordered it on CD.....
 
I copied it off a friend of mine. I had a cassette with that on one side and Depeche Mode - Some Great Reward on the other side. Needless to say, that cassette was well worn :lol:

I've both on CD and MP3 now. 8)
