Linkfest Haven


[Note: I've had the material reproduced below for years and have no recollection of whence it came. It's reproduced here for the edification of my gentle readers... ]

Some years ago, while the Soviet Empire was still a creaking franchise of the bankrupt Marxist ideals, a Russian couple was walking down the street near Red Square in Moscow one night, when the man felt a drop hit his nose.

“I think it’s raining”, he said to his wife.

“No, that felt more like snow to me”, she replied.

“No, I’m sure it was just rain,” he said.

Well, as these things go, they were about to have a major argument about whether it was raining or snowing. But just then they saw a minor communist party official walking toward them.

“Let’s not fight about it”, the man said, “Let’s ask Comrade Rudolph whether it’s officially raining or snowing”.

As the official approached, the man said, “Tell us, Comrade Rudolph, is it officially raining or snowing?”

“It’s raining, of course”, he replied, and walked on.

But the woman insisted: “I know that felt like snow!”

To which the man quietly replied:

“Rudolph the Red knows rain, dear.”
