An American is visiting the Soviet Union. He’s taking a train from Leningrad to Kiev and listening to his handheld radio when a Soviet man leans over to talk to him.
“You know, we make those better and more efficiently here in the Soviet Union, ” he says. . .
“Oh? ” Says the American.
“Yes, ” the Soviet man responds. “What is it? ”
A Soviet man is waiting in line to purchase vodka from a liquor store, but due to restrictions imposed by Gorbachev, the line is very long.
The man loses his composure and screams,
I can't take this waiting in line anymore, I HATE Gorbachev, I am going to the Kremlin right now, and I am going to kill him!
After 40 minutes the man returns and elbows his way back to his place in line. One man asks him if he has succeeded in killing Gorbachev.
"No, ” he responds. “That line was even longer. "
Hitler wasn’t such a bad guy…
…after all, he killed Hitler.
I kind a feel sorry for Hitler. Looking back at some old photos of him, his friends always left him hanging when he went for a highfive.
Three freshmanengineering students were sitting around talking between classes, when one brought up the question of who designed the human body.
One of the students insisted that the human body must have been designed by an electrical engineer because of the perfection of the nerves and synapses.
Another disagreed, and exclaimed that it had to have been a mechanical engineer who designed the human body. The system of levers and pulleys is ingenious.
"No, " the third student said, "you're both wrong. The human body was designed by an architect. Who else but an architect would have put a toxic waste line through a recreation area? "
Marilyn Monroe suggests to Einstein: What do you say, professor, shouldn't we marry and have a little baby together: what a baby it would be - my looks and your intelligence!

WHO WILL WIN?
SONG
song
Well, you done me and you bet I felt it I tried to be chill but you're so hot that I melted
I fell right through the cracks Now I'm trying to get back
Before the cool dawn run out I'll be giving it my bestest And nothing's gonna stop me but divine intervention.
I reckon, it's again my turn To win some or learn some.
But I won't hesitate No more, no more. It cannot wait, I'm yours.
Well, open up your mind and see like me, Open up your plans and you are free.
Look into your heart and you'll find love, love.
Listen to the music of the moment, people dance and sing, we're just one big family
And it's our God-forsaken right to be lovedlove, loved.
So I won't hesitate No more, no more. It cannot wait, I'm sure.
There's no need to complicate. Our time is short. This is our fate, I'm yours.
ooo oooo oo oo
I've been spending way too long checking my tongue in the mirror
And bending over backwards just to try to see it clearer
But my breath fogged up the glass And so I drew a new face and I laughed.
I guess what I'll be saying is there ain't no better reason To rid yourself of vanities and just go with the seasons.
It's what we aim to do. Our name is our virtue.
But I won't hesitate No more, no more. It cannot wait, I'm yours.
Well, open up your mind and see like me, Open up your plans and you are free.
Look into your heart and you'll find the sky is yours.
So please don't, please. . . There's no need to complicate.
'Cause our time is short. This oh, this is our fate.
But I won't hesitate No more, no more. It cannot wait, I'm yours.
