A Russian couple were walking down the street in Moscow one night, when
the man felt a drop hit his nose. 'I think it's raining', he said to his wife.
'No, that felt more like snow to me', she replied. 'No, I'm sure it was just
rain, he said'. Well, as these things go, they were about to have a major
argument about whether it was raining or snowing. Just then they saw a minor
communist party official walking toward them. 'Let's not fight about it', the
man said, 'Let's ask Comrade Rudolph whether it's officially raining or
snowing'. As the official approached, the man said, 'Tell us, Comrade Rudolph,
is it officially raining or snowing?' 'It's raining, of course', he replied, and
walked on. But the woman insisted: 'I know that felt like snow!' To which the
man quietly replied: 'Rudolph the Red knows rain, dear'.
