Old Russian joke - very popular in 1970's

Brezhnev

Comrades,

Listen up - I'm tellink you big Russian joke from days when "Big Leo" was in power...

Brezhnev's Momma comes to town. Leo is takink her all over places showing her all the perks he has as Beeg Party Boss.

He goes to his new dacha, "Look, Momma, I now have big beautiful dacha. Much better than old shack back home. Aren't you proud of your boy?"

Momma is standink there with tears in her eyes saying, "On no, Leo, thees is no good."

Brezhnev shows her all the beeg powerful cars he now has at his disposal. "See, Momma, beeg car - better than donkey cart I had back home."

Momma is wailing, "Leo. I'm so worried - thees is not good."

Finally Leo takes Momma to his beeg offices in the Kremlin. "See, Momma, I'm very powerful man. I have beeg offices".

Momma is now on floor wailink, "Leo, run, get out of town now."

Leo can't take it any more. He says,"Momma, every time I'm showink you all the nice things I have you start crying and moaning. Why, Momma, why?"

Wait for it........

Momma, choking back her tears says, "But, Leo, this is so scary. What if the Communists come back?"

Ba dum bump.

Thank you, I'll be here all week...

Danielovitch.
