Играем в колбасу!

One of LiveJournal's Russian members has created a new meme. I can translate it (well, except for a couple of words that aren't in my dictionary) - the point seems to be to see who has the longest sausage-chain of usernames. What I'm curious about is if this sausage game is something that the author made up or if it's a twist on an old game. If it's an old game, how does it work?

Warning for non-Russian speakers: Entering your name into the meme's form and clicking the button might automatically update your journal with the meme. =)

(I won't mention that my first reading of the title gave me dirty thoughts. Wait, I did mention it. *giggle*)

Hi!

I've always been interested in the Russian language. While I'm not officially learning it right now, I plan on it as soon as I graduate from my junior college. I just wanted to know -- what attracted y'all to this language?

Update: so it was posted here before. I missed it, and for the benefit of those others who may have missed it too, let it be here. Must be one of those recurrent things.

Kids stories in Russian....

Stumbled over this while browing the net. Mostly Andersen and Grimm but nice nonetheless and I guess quite good as basic reading material.

Enjoy
