Oh, I know they're not. That's what's great. I admire Russian writers. There are no happy endings, and they all know it. But that doesn't stop them from putting one foot in front of the other anyway. Everything always goes to hell, but . . . that doesn't mean you can't enjoy your vodka and your family. That attitude resonates with me.
Three men are sitting in a cell in the (KGB headquarters) Dzerzhinsky Square. The first asks the second why he has been imprisoned, who replies, "Because I criticized Karl Radek." The first man responds, "But I am here because I spoke out in favor of Radek!" They turn to the third man who has been sitting quietly in the back, and ask him why he is in jail. He answers, "I'm Karl Radek."
i love that you think they're joking...
