Aurore, you describe a sad state of affairs. Since this was written almost 10 years ago, it's gotten worse. Interesting to go back and read work like this...thanks!

Sadly it is an epidemic in Russia. When people feel hopeless they turn to whatever small pleasure they can find.

before they die, I hope they pass me my cup of orange juice....I take the screw driver and let myself loose....so I can reminisce as I stagger to my seat....they call her mother Russia and she makes my knees weak.....cheers.....;)

Sadly the desire to escape the mundane and hopelessness of poverty causes men to drown there sorrows in illusionary water.
