I can see Mossy Bear's lips moving, but nothing's coming out.

I just presumed he'd been silenced already, following the recent threats.

I hope this isn't the case.

If it is, so I don't miss out on his refreshingly open brusqueness, I'll just have to learn to lip read.

Why settle for just a temple, when you have the funds to leave an imperial city as your monument?

O.K. so you think St. Petersburg, surely that name conjures up an image that is just a little to the left of communism?
We would have to grant him a new medal ribbon IN RED!

No, way before commie red.

Like ours', their city was founded by another Peter the Great.

The medal would have to have a new imperial purple ribbon.

Your colour choice may be more accurate, but mine would make sure he never wore it in public ever again.

Just a thought, He foolishly got this medal and ribbon, was it on a personal whim or did he have advisors telling him to get it?

If the former, it proves bad judgement on his part.
If the latter it shows bad judgement on his part, for picking such rubbish advisors.
Either way, it doesn't recommend him for the position of power he is languishing, (Ooh, I like that word), in.

Re: Why are we waiting?

Actually if we're going to have a nice new purple ribbon, we might as well cast a brand new shining medal.

Sod the cost.

Forget the old plain looking one, saying 'Simply the Best'.

I'm seeing on the new medal a magnificant eagle.

An eagle from Roman antiquity.

An eagle in flight.

An eagle carrying a serf's newborn child.

A infant carrying eagle in flight, with a lovely purple ribbon!

I'll get my crayons out, and submit it.

Perhaps it was the court grape peeler, who suggested it.

How about an eagle out of some perverted nightmare, ripping out the entrails of the honourable councillor for Rishton.

Flying off with a Rishton Medusa's scalp...and hair!

Brilliant.

Minted.

How sharper the serpent's tooth than a wounded council leader?

One might think that I've in some way injured this great human monolith.

Now what have you done to upset him?

It will be your fault when he claims expenses to have an ulcer treated on Bupa
