a Russian joke
Boris scrimps and saves every ruble he can for 10 years until he finally has enough to put down a deposit for ordering a Lada. So one day in March 1979 he swaggers down to the state-run Lada sales office (there being no showrooms because the Lada was the only car available).
Feeling grandiose, he flourishes his roll of rubles and announces to the clerk, "I wish to make a deposit on a Lada!"
The clerk does not glance from the magazine he is reading and simply tell Boris, "Fill out the forms on that clipboard."
It takes Boris 15 minutes to complete them. The clerk counts his money, stamps the forms "approved," and says, "Comrade Boris, your car will be available for you to pick up," and here he consults a dog-eared calendar, "on August 22, 1986."
"Morning or afternoon?" asks Boris.
"What difference does that make?" replies the clerk.
"I have a plumber scheduled for the morning."

Someone once asked me if I could build that circuit for them. I told them if they buy the parts, I'll put it together.From the comic bloggers at xkcd.com
