Las 112 formas de concentración de Shiva III, parte 2 de 8

There was a person who lived until 100 years old. So, of course, he was on television, and in the newspapers and all that. And one of the television journalists, just out of ordinary politeness, told him, “Alright, so goodbye, sir, and I hope to see you again next year, the same, on this program.” So the 100-year-old man said, “Well, I don’t see why not. You look very healthy now.” 

There was a girl who rushed out to answer the doorbell. And then there were two men standing there. And she asked them, “What’s the matter?” Why did they want to enter her house? And so they said, “Well, we came to tune your piano.” And the woman said, “But I didn’t call you.” And they said, “But your neighbors did!” 

One more joke about an American. […] And the Russian minister asked the American minister, “How much do your citizens earn on average every month?” So the American minister said, “Well, about USD $2,000.” I’m not sure now, but at that time, perhaps. “USD $2,000.” And then the Russian minister continued asking, “How much do they spend out of that? How much is the cost of living?” He said, “They would probably spend about 1,200 dollars for everything.” And the Russian minister asked, “And what happened to the 800 dollars that’s left over?” So the American minister said, “Well, that we don’t care. We don’t bother about what they do with it. They take care of it themselves.” So, right. So then the American finance minister asked the Russian, “And then how about your country? How much does one citizen earn on average every month?” So the minister of finance in Russia said, “Oh, it’s about 800 rubles.” (Rubles.) Rubles, yes. So the American said, “Oh, I see. And how much is the living standard? How much do they have to spend?” So the Russian said, “It’s about 2,000 rubles a month.” So the American minister asked, “What can they do with the 1,200 rubles that is missing?” So the finance minister of Russia said, “Well, that we don’t care about. They take care of themselves.” They don’t care. They also respect the freedom of privacy.
