Suspended!

[pyat]

The Governor General decided to suspend Parliament till January, so that the PM can try with a new budget. BOO! BOO! Down with outmoded royalist trappings! Death to the Aristos! Treason! Riot! Revolt! Anti-democracy! Everyone storm the Winter Palace and stand about on tables, waving bits of paper! Down with the GG!

Hey, storming the Winter Palace. I can do that!

*charges across plaza, waving Moisin-Nagant rifle as the Aurora shells downtown Ottowa, "Tocsin" from the Schostakovich 11th playing in the background.*

We can sing "The Internationale!"

"Got our KalashniKOVS!
And our Gin and TONICS!
Don't mess with us!
Cuz we're HOOKED ON PHONICS!"

I'm suddenly realizing that my mental picture of the entire Russian Revolution is basically a re-hash of The Year 1905 and The Battleship Potemkin.

At least your mental picture of Rasputin isn't courtesy of Don Bluth.
