I thought Stalin sent an assassin to Mexico to kill him?

That was Leon Trotsky, Lenin was already dead.

I've seen the body up close and personal... its really weird to see it... i mean, the dude was born over 100 years ago for crying out loud. No cameras are allowed in the tomb and you have to remove your ball caps...

Moscow is cool for like a week. I will say this though, their McDonalds service blows ours out of the water. Its hot, the fries are cooked well and they have one person take the order and another person get it at the same time.

I read that Hitler probably had syphillis too. There are many people throughout history that had the disease. Indianapolis has had the the honor of being the syphilis capital of the U.S. I think Detroit is really bad and may have been the syphilis capital for a year also.
