Do you like your Russian house? Tough rubles!

This story of a Russian woman whose house in Nizhny Novgorod was accidentally torn down while she was on vacation was made in TUR heaven (a place where dumb actions grow on trees and the roads are paved with bacon). It appears that several confused construction workers demolished the wrong house and were all like "Oops! Sorrys, voman. Here, have some moneys," and the woman was like "Ne! I'll see you in court," and then she was mysteriously poisoned except the government suspects she might have been guilty of thought crimes in the mid-90s. Ok, not that last part, but frankly, I wouldn't be surprised. The article doesn't say what she does for a living, but if she has any relationship to any journalistic enterprise active or otherwise, she's toast. I mean borscht.

Don't you miss the old days in Russia, when people like this would just get sent to Siberia. Ahhh! Siberia!
