Crappy flags

For some reason, my colleague Rene started to look for flags of Soviet Republics. He found a nice Wikipedia page which has all of them, and you know what? Almost all are simply terrible designs. Except Latvian, Lithuanian and maybe Azerbaijani, the rest looks like they have been drawn by a 8 year old niece of Communist Party secretary general.

MORE STONES!

Good to know that we're not the only morons in the Baltics. Lithanian Parlament gets its share of stones too. Estonians - catch up!

Average voter

Reading news about vandalism next to Parliament building in Riga this evening made me remember a phrase from Winston Churchill: "The best argument against democracy is five minute conversation with average voter."
