A cold-war era joke for you...

   An eastern block nation (Hungary, Poland, Yugoslavia- it's irrelivant but take your pick!) in the Stalinist Period of the cold war. Two men are walking together down a street...

Man 1: (Loudly) So comrade! what do you think of our glorious leader!

Man 2: Not here damn it! Do you have any idea what you're saying! We'll speak somewhere else!

Man 2 leads Man 1 down a side street, into a back alley near a fire escape. They push their way into the door and arrive in a factory corridor

Man 2: So wha...

Man 1: No! Not here! It's still too public!

Finally, out of exasperation, Man 2 leads Man 1 right down more streets, through abandoned corridors until they arrive in an abandoned apartment block. Man 2 leads Man 1 right into the basement.

Man 2: Right, we're here, we're alone and there is nobody around - so what do you think of him?

Man 1: Who?

Man 2: The leader!

Man 1: Oh, I actually think he's rather good!
