Practicity

After a little pause due to my private and business duties, I’m back. Here is an old joke about relationship between United Stats and former Soviet Union, at the time of cold war. Old one, but really good joke – hope you like it.

During the cold war, in the seventies, the fear of Soviet’s communism was widespread in all of the Western world countries. The subsequent conversation takes place in the office of the President of the United States of America.

- Mr. President, the Russians have just landed on the Moon and started painting it red! They are working really quick and already a quarter of the Moon is painted!

- Explain to me what is the problem, please?

- But Mr. President, if they make it all red, the communist symbol will be over heads of the entire world inhabitants!

- Don’t worry about it, just let them work.

Three days after, the adviser enters into President’s office again, very agitated.

- Mr. President, they are almost done with the first half! What should we do?

- No worries about, just let them keep going.

Later that week, the same adviser desolately announce to the President.

- Mr. President, if you look up, you’ll see that the Moon is completely red now. The Russians are done.

- Ok, now that they are done, please launch one of our space rocket and have them write “Coca-Cola” right across.
