It is already so many years that the Soviet Union does not exist anymore? I cannot believe it.

Good to know information. The photo you attached reminds me of my childhood. I never had that toy but I was able to borrow from friends.

I still have a slinky that I like to play with. It's good for relieving stress.

Thanks for sharing the events of what happened on this day. I did not know that end of the Soviet Union happened on this day in 1991.
