    Hello, guys, i am fresh meat from Russia. Before you will ask, i want to say : there is no bears walking on russian streets. No, seriously, everyone from the west think that we drink vodka with bears. We drink vodka sometimes, but exactly no bears. :shifty:

    Sorry for my grammar ;) I hope this forums will bring us lots of fun and lots of knowelge. :)

    Hello Tankist.
    Bit of a Vodka habit myself, Finnish and Russian is very nice... but Polish is better :cheers:.

    (by the way, I have never pictured Bears on Russian streets, Isn't that Canada? ;))

    Cheers,
    Adam.

    Ya let one sport a J Stalin avatar and look what we get, now they're moving in all over the place. :D

    Welcome Tankist and I hope you enjoy posting here. Don't worry about your English, it is much better than my Russian, and most everyone elses', except for sloniskp. Trust me on that one.

    Von P, I thought all Canadian cities has moose trodding the streets?
    (if plural of goose is geese, why isn't the plural of moose, meese?)

    Welcome aboard Tankist, love the avatar. I forsee the Great Patriotic War getting more and more attention on here.

    Don't worry about the grammar, it is probably better than alot of native English speakers.

    We have enough of those wild dogs in here. That's for sure, that's for dang sure. :panic:

    Tankist, we've been over-run here lately with Texans. We tolerate them, but just barely, right PzJgr?

    Of course, how silly of me, and naturally, a Mountie on every corner.
    Now, I'm just off out for a warm beer, roast Beef, & some football violence... where on earth did I put my top hat?? :D

    :flag_USSR::flag_canada_ww2::flag_USA_ww2::flag_uk:
    (Union flag not displaying properly? It's a colonial conspiracy I tell you!)

    Liked the Avatar too tankist... Champagne Socialism.

    von Poop, if you learned to type properly instead of imagining people conspiring against you you'd have better results.

    See? :flag_uk:

    The way things are our Yankee forum colleagues would feel in the right to say you are a damned liberal, depending on the state to solve your problems and feed you from grave to cradle, yadda, yadda, probably frenchified to boot and an enemy of the 2nd Amendment.

    So there!

    Hi Tankist, welcome to the site and don't listen to Za at all. He's just jealous that the State of Texas is bigger that the entire country where he says he comes from :-D

    Well, according to the CIA Factbook we're "slightly smaller than the state of Indiana". Whether that's good or bad the CIA doesn't tell, but in any case that's a source of ill repute :)

    Tolerate? Hmmmm, Here we Texans grace y'all with our presence and now there is a conspiracy by bringing in the Finns and Russians. Well, since we do come from the 'Friendly' state, you find us drinking vodka and bourban with our new found friends! Slipdigit has already been converted. He just doesn't want to go public and lose his Alabama citizenship.

    Welcome to the forum Tankist. Happy posting.
