Wow!!

I'm an old Cold Warrior who cried when the Berlin Wall came down...but who would have ever thunk this!!??

Bet them pipers were having thoughts about where they were and how the World has changed.

Ah yes; I saw "The Wall" put up, and I saw it knocked down. And now, Pipers in the Kremlin! One never knows what to expect.

My good friend Chris Tait has strolled through Red Square on several occasions dressed as Robert Burns:

And, best of all, he was recognized by many folks, including a number of school kids -- but the Russians love Burns as much as the Scots do.
