https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peeter_Volkonski

Prince Peeter Volkonski (born 12 September 1954 in Tallinn) is an Estonian rock-musician, composer, actor, and theatre director.

He became famous with the punk band Propeller, founded in 1978.

Peeter Volkonski's paternal ancestry comes from the Russian noble Volkonsky family; his father was the Russian composer and harpsichordist Prince Andrei Volkonsky. His paternal grandfather was the noted Russian opera baritone Prince Mikhail Volkonsky and his great-great-great-grandfather was Prince Pyotr Mikhailovich Volkonsky,[3][4][5] thus, being a descendant of the princely Rurikid dynasty.[6]

His maternal ancestry is Estonian; his mother is the Estonian translator and writer Helvi Jürisson, who is a noted poet and author of children's literature.[6]

[Verse 1]
Folks, here's a story 'bout Minnie the Moocher
She was a red hot hoochie-coocher
She was the roughest toughest frail
But Minnie had a heart as big as a whale

[Chorus]
Hi de hi de hi de hi
Ho de ho de ho de ho
Hee de hee de hee de hee
Hi de hi de hi de ho

Thanks for the birthday greetings. :biggrin:

Mrs.V. arranged a small get together with cake and ice cream for a few vaccinated relatives.

Unfortunately her unvaccinated oldest brother showed up. This caused 3 vaccinated people not to come. Mrs. V. finally got her brother to leave but the damage was done. :(

Our Circle's annual potluck dinner is this coming Saturday. We currently have two cottages of unvaccinated people on the Circle. Fear that the dinner may be a bust. Two cottages of Mrs. V's cousins will have small children staying with them.

Sigh.
