I’ve heard that he plans to be buried there too when his time comes. I can’t imagine too many cemeteries wanting his earthly shell buried there, because it would rival GG Allin in grave desecration. (If you don’t know who he was, keep it that way.) ---

Trump will be buried face down so people can … You already know the old joke. 🙂 It’s true his eventual grave will attract a lot of people that either like or dislike him. Don’t want a repeat of what happened at Lincoln’s tomb. > **[This week in history: Plot to steal Abraham Lincoln’s body foiled](https://chicago.suntimes.com/2021/4/15/22382530/abraham-lincolns-body-stolen-plot)** > > In 1876, Abraham Lincoln’s body sat in an unguarded tomb in a cemetery about two miles outside of Springfield. That year, two Chicago counterfeiters hatched a plot to steal it. ---

True – although at least in Ivana’s case, she always did like to wear a lot of make-up. Nothing wrong with that. She had _style_. (Far, far more than her ex) ---

I’ve seen photos of her on skis in 1999. AFAIK she never got seriously hurt. That’s quite an accomplishment for someone that skied regularly since childhood. ---

I have never seen any resemblance between the fat guy and the handsome young man. I’ve also never believed that the fat guy could have actually managed to successfully impregnant his current wife (or anyone else) back then. That would have meant she allowed the blob to do more than hold her hand and we all know how much she enjoyed that. ---

> [@Jingleheimer-Schmidt](#): > > I think in some Slavic languages, the k at/near the end is a diminutive/term of endearment. Correctomondo. The most common example I’ve seen of this is Masha → Mashka. (And Masha itself is a diminutive of Maria.) So Maria would be the name on documents. Masha would be the everyday name. And Mashka would be what family members would call her. ---

I see he uses his dad’s tailor. Although if he’s growing that fast, maybe they bought/left the trousers long to grow into. That’s what my folks did, but of course we weren’t pretending to be billionaires.
