This guy made himself immortal in so many ways including the language. Yes, his name is in an idiomatic phrase. Could you tell what phrase it is and what it means? The answer is in the picture.

That's right, Евгения! Thank you!
Btw Pittsburgh Penguins' hockey broadcaster Mike Lange uses the phrase if a goal is scored late in the game that effectively puts the game out of reach.
Thank YOU Alexander. Honestly, I did not know this expression before your question ), and it was not so clear at once who was on the picture )), but then it was easy to find the answer ))... The exercise was worthwhile. To have an opportunity to learn something is luck and privilege. Btw how would you translate into English the genius expression - "быть обласканным уроком"? (Из грузинских переводов Б. Ахмадулиной: ..."не научен тому, не обласкан уроком")
>"Концерт окончен".
Навеяло:
Концерт давно окончен, но песня бесконечна.
Пусть отключат на сцене мой давно уставший микрофон...
Евгения, I'm always happy when people find something new and interesting in my puzzles) and yes, I agree with your words, it's the real luxury.
To be treated kindly with the lesson ))) I don't know... the task is worth a post)
Ого Игорь, только что ощутил себя Музой)))
