Silly guy should have pulled his beanie down further. He'll get cold ears.

Maybe the fall of Communism wasn't such a good idea for them after all. Before they had all this "freedom" they didn't do this shit, did they? Or is this a remnant of "entertainment from the old regime?" This bit of the river doesn't run near Lubyanka, does it?

I want to know about the shape of the hole in the ice. Is that the ice's way of flipping off the world?

wouldn't you want to be splashing around and stuff?

Haven't you ever been in really cold water jag? The more you move, the more fresh (i.e. cold) water you have touching your skin. If you sit very, very still, you warm up the water around you ever-so-slightly.

мир means both "world" and "peace".

Just because someone asked: морщиться means "shrinking".

Entering cyrillic characters in the forum works just fine as you can see. The Unicode entities needed are described here.

Pssst ... I knew. I was making a moderately obscure joke. Thanks for being the one to get it!

Thanks for the info on entering Cyrillic characters!
