Wow. No, really. Wow.

I certainly don't mean to get all Cold War crazy on you, but you've got to be at least a little creeped out by the fact that the Russian Orthodox Church has named a patron saint of nuclear-armed long-range bombers.

Also, speaking of weird things in Russia, monthly polls there by the Levada Center show approval ratings of the current government at 29%, but Putin's own approval number is 70%. That is in-sane.

Wow. That is awesome on so many levels.

But it is most awesomest because of that photograph of Patriarch Alexei II. The Orthodox faiths always bring the bling. I think rappers should stop the gangster movie idol-worship and look towards the eastern churches.

I mean, imagine Lil Jon rockin' that headdress. Dreads spilling out. Little miniature pimp goblet on top.
