Congratulations on the first meaningful Soviet Russia joke ever.
It was founded 301 years ago as St. Petersburg (this was the time of Peter the Great - Imperial Russia); later, during World War I, It became Petrograd; then came the Bolsheviki and Leningrad arose in 1924 - when Lenin died. Now, It's St. Petersburg again.
My sister was the only American female in the competition. She was from Shippensburg University, a backwater little college in PA. She said all the American geek guys were hitting on her, except they were too afraid to actually talk to her. Instead, they went through one of the other guys on her team.
And this is why stupid people will outbreed the intelligent. Why? Because geeks lack the social skills to actually TALK to a female, nonetheless MATE with one. Got to love stereotypes.
In Soviet Russia, MATH studies YOU!
someone PLEASE mod this way up.....dam why haven't I joined yet???
