Russia is extremely vulnerable right now and really all they have left is to terrorize civilians with ballistic missiles. Ukraine needs to keep hammering away at Russian oil infrastructure. It’s the piggy bank funds this illegal war.

Last night Hope and I went to the Central City Opera to see The Marriage of Figaro. The musical performance was great. But unfortunately they did it in Italian, not English, which takes out all the fun of the jokes. Light opera should be done in the audience’s language.
