Russians shoot down rain clouds for Bush
No seriously.

MOSCOW, May 9 (Reuters) - For a heart-stopping hour it looked on Monday as if President Vladimir Putin would fail to deliver on a promise to provide fine weather for world leaders attending Victory Day celebrations.
Russia's Defence Ministry put its honour on the line last week when it stated flatly that Russian planes would repel any hostile clouds that could mar a Red Square parade attended by U.S. President George W. Bush and other world leaders.
Russian news agencies said the air force had sent up 11 planes to seed the clouds with chemical dispersal agents, a procedure refined over decades of grand state occasions and used to guarantee a sunny olympic games in 1980.
