RE: [Cz-L]czernowitz-l digest: November 28, 2011

Re: Mila Kunis

I presume this child of Russia's version of Cz is famous in the new world but, alas, she is unknown to me. I gave up TV several years ago and have never heard of her show nor all the other idiocies that contemporary TV offers, except for the weekly CBS 60 Minutes and NBC Nightly News.

Of course, Cz would have been a backwater. All Communist towns were backwaters and their religion was dirt. You couldn't live in a proper Communist home if the exterior and interior walls hadn't carefully preserved all the dirt that had drifted by since Carl Marx. The gushing text by the GQ writer didn't enhance the poor girl's image and frankly, my first reaction to that picture of the child on that diving board was, "Oy, she needs a few good meals and a coach in posture. We should take up a collection among the ten thousand Chassidim to help her out."
Cheers,
Andy Halmay
