The palm trees are probably fake, now that I consider it.

The wild dogs might be the only real thing in Sochi.

Associated Press

There have been growing concerns regarding the safety of athletes, press, and spectators at the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi. Speaking on condition of anonymity, a Russian security officer was quoted as saying "Has anybody got a dime? Somebody's gotta go back and get a poo poo-load of dimes!"

There's going to be at least one, most likely. This is too big an opportunity to embarrass Putin to let it slip by, and Dagestan is nothing if not willing to attack. The Russians killed the ringleader of those bus attacks yesterday, but that won't stop anything.
