"It's all about the triumph of intellect and romance over brute force and cynicism." Okay, so that's Craig Ferguson talking about Doctor Who, but this blog endeavors exactly that. Lofty yes, but what the hell, why not. Onward, my romantic intellectual companions!

Bush Legs
So I was reading an article from Slate today about how apparently America ships dark meat chicken to Russia because we (oddly enough) consider it waste and Russia had a chicken shortage at one point in time. I mentioned this to my roommate, [Львица], who spent a semester in Russia last year. "Oh yeah!" she said. "I know that!" She went on to tell me that because this shipment of chicken to Russia had begun during Bush's time as president, her host family called chicken legs "Bush legs." Perfect. :)
