(We're a bit late today - couldn't login to Mudcat this morning and now we're up in Raleigh, North Carolina. Mudcat seems to exist here, too. I think.)


Happy Birthday!

Tsar Nicholas II

born 5/18/1868 (NS)
(shot 7/16/1917)

          A bersonal vriend of the Tsar vwas I,
          A  bosom pal of the great Nicolai,
          We bracticlly schlept in the zame dobble bed,
          Me at the foot, and him at the head.
  
                  But all that zeems distant and all very far...
