Dear GYA, My name is Vladamir Putin and I am now officially single. But first, a little about myself. Everyone knows I love the animals. I like to do things like the riding of horses with my shirt off on Russian beach. I spend weekends teaching flocks of cranes to migrate south in my bird plane, and I occasionally fight wolves with plutonium sword. ---So, yes, I'm the prettiest of fun dudes. Anything to do this weekend for me and many ladies? -- Vladimir Putin
