I was talking to two Romanian immigrant women members of my church (Orthodox) today. They told me that that there is a wealthy hotel and restaurant owner in their area of Romania bordering Ukraine, that has opened his hotels and restaurants to refugees free of charge.

I don't play it.up.but my.blood is 1/2 Russian from my Father's side. I don't feel much kinship with Russia BUT I believe the average Russian citizen does not want war or the fallout war generates. I feel everyday Russians here are victims, too. What's going to happen now I don't know. I think now might be a great time to stock up on canned goods. And pray if that's your thing. Rob

He’s also having food sent to the border for people immediately as they cross.

Glad it gave you some hope.

I saw a meme today - 4 things on earth you can see from space: the Grand Canyon, The Great Pyramids of Giza, The Amazon River and the balls of Volodymyr Zelensky.

Ha, that's a good one. I've been very impressed with Mr Zelensky. I've grown accustomed to politicians such as Mr Trudeau going into hiding in the US when truckers peacefully protest so it was refreshing to see Mr Zelensky's response to our offer to get him out of the country. He said "I don't need a ride, I need ammunition." That's a real leader!

Yeah, DH pointed out that one to me this morning. Funny. This Ukraine President is getting lots of love from Americans.

He’s certainly held out longer than the “experts” initially thought. He’s basically shamed and shocked the Germans out of their Merkel-era defense parasitism. Sweden and Finland are openly talking about NATO membership. It’s only a matter of time until Hollywood gets out their version of the story. Not bad for a comedian.

I heard this morning that the Snake Island troops got out alive. I hope that’s true.

I heard that too, but currently being held captive by the Russians.
