Hey, its OK, because they’re going to Russia

spies2.JPGAre those lines at school to pick up Junior getting you down?

Got the declining city blues?

Tired of Ansdorff jerking you around?

Well sit tight, because Mayor Bradshaw and Boss O’Connor have it figured out. They’re heading down to Oak Ridge’s sister city, Obninsk, Russia, to get the answers on our dime, along with some reps for the sister city project (on their own dime, unfortunately).

They don’t even have to raise property taxes to do it!

One thing you can say about Obninsk, is they have a snazzy website. Thats pretty sweet. I tried looking around for our sister snarky mean blog, Атомная Опухоль, but I don’t see it.  Thats a shame, because its probably full of good ol’ Russian goodness.

I’d be curious to see press of this thing, but, unlike G8, its probably top secret.  I’ll bet the Russians are like Bizarro versions of Bradshaw and O’Connor, and they’ll be showing off a dusty book called “How to cook Americans“, so they’re bound to be some sort of wacky misunderstanding, until they realize that the book is called “How to cook for Americans“, and goes on a predictable bend from there.

Still tho, I wish somebody would take me to Russia.  I like Vodka.  I can wear blue jeans.
