“Tip the world over on its side and everything loose will land in Los Angeles.” Yep. I believe that Kerensky ended up in California, also.

Can we ever forget Boney M's hit song Rasputin? Well, some of us can, but it was fun for me to hear it again.

Rasputin gave the Czar two excellent pieces of advice, and a disaster for Russia that they went unheeded. The first was to stay out of World War One. The other was at all costs to keep Petrograd adequately supplied with food and fuel during the cold winter months. Had Nicholas the Bonehead done either he and we might have escaped the Russian Revolution.

That’s a fascinating life… and close in history. Her last house is still standing in Los Angeles in a strange Google streetview time warp where if you try to get a close up view from the street with google you shoot through it to the next block.

Try it.
