Miumiu Guitargirl is an extremely talented Young Guitarist but I truly hope the young talented guitar player doesn't know the real meaning of the song Hotel California. She's far too young for that.

Stephen you would surprised where a few so called Russian leaders that hailed from Ukraine and Georgia.
Ioseb Besarionis dzе Djugashvili
Леонід Ілліч Брежнєв,
Let you figure out who.

You would have to consider the effect on history, science, arts, and human life. I would say Atilla as he started the movement of the Goths and others that caused the downfall of the Western Roman Empire. He has had a 1600 year-long influence. If there was a unified empire there would have been no dark ages, probably no Islam and we would be living in the year 2500 now.

Doone. Of all those famous people who has had the greatest influence?

A Russian on Twitter complaining about the Kant selection for Russia
Sorry but Kant for Russia? He was Prussian. Only because Königsberg is now Russian Kant is not. There are many Russians who “deserve” the top spot

The philosopher's song.
Immanuel Kant was a real pissant
who was very rarely stable.
Heidegger, Heidegger was a boozy beggar
who could think you under the table. David Hume could out-consume
Wilhelm Freidrich Hegel. And Wittgenstein was a beery swine
who was just as schloshed as Schlegel. There's nothing Nietzsche couldn't teach ya
'bout the raising of the wrist,
Socrates, himself, was permanently pissed.John Stuart Mill, of his own free will,
On half, a pint of shandy was particularly ill. Plato, they say, could stick it away,
Half a crate of whiskey every day. Aristotle, Aristotle was a bugger for the bottle,
And Hobbes was fond of his dram.And Rene Descartes was a drunken fart,
"I drink, therefore I am."Yes, Socrates himself is particularly missed,
A lovely little thinker, but a bugger when he's pissed.
