The chick on the left with the burp gun, the PPSh41, needs some firearm safety training, badly.

I live under the east to west flightpath to America here in Bristol, and there are vapour trails and planes up there today!

I’ve been to that bar in Lviv. Interesting place. Budma, Budma, Budma!

Given that the Lithuanian-Polish Commonwealth was neutral in the war of Austrian succession, my guess is that it is probably okay to bring the subject of that war up in Lviv…

On the other hand, good company as the two ladies (and indeed the third who was kind enough to take the photograph) were, they didn’t actually speak a lot of English. It is thus entirely possible that they might have taken Paul’s observations on the said war as instead a compliment on the loveliness of their eyes, or some such.

Dear Penthouse,

I always thought your letters were bull shit until this happened to me…

Dont be so hard on yourself Paul. Your chat up line on the War of the Austrian Succession is lethal!

Get on a train.

Seriously, folks. It’s not like these people need to be on a plane. They have state-subsidized railroad trains.

Get on one and go home.

I really hope that’s a Holiday Inn bar…and not the local Hostel

I have a couple of issues with this pic…

1. That chick with the PPSh has the muzzle pointed in an unsafe direction.

2. Her thumb also seems to be on the trigger.

3. Each of the girls are at least 3-5 points out of Michael league.

So unless Michael has completely forgotten his gun safety rules and there is some kind of Ukrainian calibration I need to apply to my chick-meter, I’m saying this pic is photo-shopped.

This calls for a trip to the Ukraine for a first hand investigation of these women–er, I mean, issues.
