On George's column

Very interesting opinion that may have worked in the 1990s. However, we’ll never know since the idea was never entertained/implemented by President Clinton’s administration.

My opinion is that because of the deep seeded mistrust of Americans by Russians society at large, its practically impossible for your theory to work. Americans were considered as liberators at the end of WW2 and welcomed with open hands all over devasted Europe. Exact opposite will be the case if Ukraine wins.

Magic and romance were on display the last two Saturday nights in January, as Nick brought in two sets of musicians, and played the kind of music you would pay big money to hear at places like Smoke and the Village Vanguard in Manhattan. He will be back every Saturday night in February, with two or three sets of music starting at 7 pm. The food is good too, coming from the kitchen of Le Petite Crevette next door. Lobster are delicious, as is the onion soup or chowder, and the small entrees including chicken nachos.

Don't forget to tip the band on your way out!
