The Geek's Raven
[An excerpt, with thanks to Marcus Bales]

Once upon a midnight dreary,
fingers cramped and vision bleary,
System manuals piled high and wasted paper on the floor,
Longing for the warmth of bedsheets,
Still I sat there, doing spreadsheets:
Having reached the bottom line,
I took a floppy from the drawer.
Typing with a steady hand, I then invoked the SAVE command
But got instead a reprimand: it read "Abort, Retry, Ignore".

What difference does it make if Ukraine jails a Russian soldier "for life"? Ukraine no longer exists.

Just the latest scene in the theater of the absurd we've been observing in Ukraine lately is the great play in the Western media given to the jailing of a Russian soldier for life for "war crimes". Like this is supposed to represent some major deterrent to Vladimir Putin in his military operations. Like Vladimir Putin really gives a damn, or should give a damn, what Ukrainian courts do about anything. The Russians already have thousands of Ukrainian POW's, and are on the verge of getting thousands more in what remains of Donbas, as they systematically take over the rest of the region, despite the tens of billions of dollars in useless weaponry supplied by NATO, and the brilliant support assistance of NATO mercenaries, including a goodly number of U.S. Marines. This guy who's being jailed in Kiev for "war crimes" will be drinking champagne with the best Ukrainian hookers in Moscow within six months, guaranteed! As Ukraine slowly disintegrates because of its own, and NATO's stupidity, the only issue is precisely how much territory Russia wants. Think the Mexican-American War, 1848-49. I'm quite certain the Mexicans would still like to prosecute Americans for "war crimes" from that one too, don't you think?
