[rec.humor.funny] Soviet Humor: Muscovite memory

TCOMEAU@scivax.stsci.edu (Chairman, Von Neumann Catastrophe Relief Fund) (03/25/91)

A Muscovite asks her butcher for beef and is told there is none.  She asks for
chicken.  None.  Lamb?  None.  Pork?  None.  Veal?  None.  The shopper leaves
and the butcher exclaims to his assistant, "What a terrific memory!"

From "Suddenly, The American Idea at Home and Abroad", George F. Will,
1990, The Free Press, New York.
