Favourite joke? "Sergej"; An American, a German, and a Russian talked about their dreams in life. The American would like to live on Florida with a lot of Whiskey, swimming, Coca-Cola, marihuana, and lots of babes. The German says he would like a summer house on the Bodensee, sleeping on his inflatable, drink a lot of coffee, eat sausages, and have a ton of blondes around him. The Russian answers: I'm in Sibiria, -60°C, I go to sleep, the guard-room is -40°C. I cover myself with a blanked, the commander walks in and yells: "Sergej, guard duty!", and I turn over, knowing my name isn't Sergej! |
