Russian pop song (“Red Wave”) from 1989. Featured in the war film “9th Company”.
Ever wonder what a Soviet made action film was like?
This is “Solo Voyage” also known as “The Detached Mission”. And it is the Russian response to jingoistic cinema like “Rambo” or “Red Dawn”? This is that film
This movie is about an American treasure hunter named Jack Harrison who joins forces with a team of Soviet Marines ( or Naval Infantry) in order to thwart a plot by the CIA and military industrialists who plan to launch a nuclear missile to frame the Soviets and disrupt a disarmament summit… and maybe even start World War III! But Harrison, Major Shatokin, and a brave team Soviet troops are determined to stop this conspiracy of the elite and save the world from nuclear war!
Sound familiar? Its just, you are more used to having the Russian and American roles reversed.
This is the closest that you will ever get to see me in a photo. Ideally, my face is covered.
It makes me look a little dumpy but that is because it has some air in it.
This is me at Plan 9 Comics in Boone for their Halloween party.I was really too late to show up for the costume contest but they gave me 5th place anyway. I got a bag full of candy and some other stuff.
I didn’t get to stay too long but it was fun. Because of the mask no one recognized me and I kind of freaked everyone out by not talking. It was great. The real tragedy is that this is the only mask I can wear with my glasses. I had an actual Russian made gas mask but due to my bad eye sight and my HUGE head I could not wear it properly. One of the guys who comes to the shop was in the army and told me to be on the look out for wither a M24 gas mask or a M17 gas mask as they were made for people with eye issues.
Thanks to Jenny for snapping these for me!

I read an article on tumblr on mysterious radio broadcasts that are bouncing around in the ether long after their broadcasters have ceased to exist. It is kind of creepy. The imagination runs wild. Even if it is some transmitter that is running long after it had been forgotten and abandoned.
Some say that it is contact with spies Some say that it is a transmission from people who don’t know they are dead. Or just maybe it comes from people stranded in another dimension.
No matter what it is. The Buzzer keeps on going…
