The Soviets had promised at Yalta to enter the war in the Pacific within 3 months of the war ending in Europe. And they did launch an attack on Manchuria at 3 months to the day. Hardly feet dragging.

In fact, them being about to launch the attack, was one of the deciding factors on Truman dropping the nukes on Japan. He wanted to prevent the Soviets fron capturing territory that they would be reluctant to give up in the end. And he also knew that the USSR entering the war in the pacific would be what really pushed Japan to surrender. He didn’t want to lose the opportunity to show off the new toys to scare the Soviets.

It’s an ostentation of peacocks

The birds are in misery. I don’t think they sing, they just screetch in pain.

There are three things which come to my mind which I consider excellent advice:

First, girls, don’t smoke–that is, don’t smoke to excess. I am seventy- three and a half years old, and have been smoking seventy-three of them. But I never smoke to excess–that is, I smoke in moderation, only one cigar at a time.

Second, don’t drink–that is, don’t drink to excess.

Third, don’t marry–I mean, to excess.

He’s a snapping turtle now.

I think you need to add in the concept of ‘confidental’ as well to this. Your address isn’t a secret, but you don’t tell somone on the internet, even a ‘friend’ on the internet, where you live.
