Categories: Eastern & Central Europe, Russia, Ukraine, History, Humor, Politics

Carpetblogger marks Leonid Brezhnev's 100th birthday [1] with a Brezhnev joke: “Stalin, Krushchev and Brezhnev were riding on a train. The train comes to a halt in the middle of nowhere. Stalin yells out: ‘kill the engineer!’ Khrushchev calls out: ‘rehabilitate the engineer!’ Brezhnev says: ‘pull down the window shades and pretend we're still moving!'”
