With two friends of mine who passed away a couple of years of years apart while I was on or preparing for my overseas work, it had been the top of our recurring watch list. We watched it together every few years with a rotating cast of others joining us on occasion, and at one point, my then-19-year-old son watched it with us and told me afterwards that it wasn't until then that he felt like one of the gang. Steve and Roland and I could quote it together by heart. I can't even think about watching it anymore without missing the hell out of my two dearest friends. But I highly recommend it to all of a certain mindset that will treat it as lovingly zany as it was intended rather than see it as demeaning.
But the sunshine aye shall light the sky,
As round and round we run;
And the truth shall ever come uppermost,
And justice shall be done.

I don't know if those are hand tremors at the beginning or if he's just gesturing to someone just offscreen. I didn't see any thing I'd call a leg tremor.

Really? To me it look like he can barely walk. His right leg jutters -twice? - just as he steps forward, and to me it looks like he has real trouble with forward motion.

Didn't see a thing wrong with his hands. His right leg seemed to move oddly as he started walking. That's it.

Interesting. (Rewatches video a few times) Hmmm... maybe a bit. It could be that I'm just more used to seeing people who have walking difficulties (my dad had trouble my entire life) so it doesn't stand out to me as much.

Hey now!

Our former Commander-in-Chief had troubles drinking water from a small plastic cup. He also needed an escort down a moderate ramp to keep from falling.

Soon after, he proclaimed his superior physical and mental states. :roll:

Nothing to see here. :nope:

If a coup is about to happen, the last place you will hear about it is fucking Twitter. You might as well bang a drum outside Putin's office.

Besides, most of the "rumours" there come from Russian agitators anyway.

I don't know. Putin is well known for not trusting any information that does not come through his old KGB buddies. He doesn't listen to the news, he doesn't read twitter, he lives in a very filtered bubble.

I just wish to mark this special anniversary. 3 years ago to the day, during a mighty Hockey game showing off his many physique, the great leader executed a flawless Special Horizontal Operation. He was forced to execute by pressure from NATO, but still shows that he has flawless balance and style. Jealous looks were seen from all his opponents at his skill.

found on Quora:

Putin dies and goes to hell, but after a while, he is given a day off for good behavior.

So he goes to Moscow, enters a bar, orders a drink, and asks the bartender:

-Is Crimea ours?

-Yes, it is.

-And the Donbas?

-Also ours.

-And Kyiv?

-We got that too.

Satisfied, Putin drinks, and asks:

-Thanks, how much do I owe you?

-5 euros.
