I had a nightmare I was swallowed by a giant cucumber.
It was awful; couldn't find my way out. I tell ya, I was in a real pickle.
@Coctaanatis It just seemed strange that you stated "both countries" ...
@Coctaanatis "... If you're a dual citizen you're subject to possible conscription in both countries. Being also a US citizen doesn't give you a pass..."
@Coctaanatis Though I'd think that there would be less chance of being conscription by the U.S. to fight in Ukraine than conscription by russia to fight in Ukraine, as the statement implies.

MOSCOW, Feb 13 (Reuters) - The United States has told its citizens to #leave #Russia #immediately due to the war in Ukraine and the #risk of arbitrary arrest or harassment by Russian law enforcement agencies.
"U.S. citizens residing or travelling in Russia should depart immediately," the U.S. embassy in Moscow said. "Exercise #increased #caution due to the risk of wrongful detentions."
"Do not #travel to Russia," it added.

Guesses and comments welcome.
AND: Even if someone has (apparently) guessed correctly, it can't hurt to post your guess as well - even if it's the same one.

@Myriacanth I'm the same when it comes to age-guessing...
@Myriacanth Correct...!
@Myriacanth Agree about Lois... but she's still a 'contemporary' while Weldon and Neal were a full 25-30 years prior...
@Myriacanth Correct...!
@Myriacanth Actually I can see that - Looks like Lorre's in the same costume!... However, wrong film...
