My girlfriend had a very good grandmother.

A nice woman, but here is her habit of asking everything thoroughly. In childhood, friends of a girlfriend didn't even want to call her on the home phone (the cell phone wasn't everybody then), call for a walk, because if you suddenly rush to Antonina Pavlovna, it begins:

Who is asking her? What did you want? Where do you want to walk? In the cinema? In what movie? Who else will be there? What kind of saucer is this? What class do you go to? half an hour.

Then a fraudster called my grandmother. Presented to the police, said, your son shot a man, urgently need to transfer the money, so that the son is not jailed. (Popular at the time of divorce, and with the son they guessed, so the grandmother generally believed them)

and carried out:

Whom did he beat? At what time was it? Where did he drive? What did he do there? Who else was in the car? Which car was he in, his wife?

In short, the fraudster dropped the phone.

Monday is a bright day that marks the beginning of a joyful working week. Therefore, on Monday, it is better not to go to work, so as not to obscure the holiday.

Old New Year’s story. Before the New Year, the trade union of our rural PTU has traditionally identified Santa Claus and Snowball in the team, provided costumes, sweet gifts and car transport - and sent to congratulate the children and grandchildren of employees. It is clear that to congratulate started from the most distant, and ended in the dormitory, so our child was among the last to congratulate. We waited for congratulators in the evening, the daughter read the verse, guessed the puzzles, received a gift, and pleased went to bed, and we offered colleagues to stay in the kitchen for a drink or another.
I have to say that the colleagues came almost sober (even more, among those visited were the management apartments), but as their mission was close to completion (colleagues lived in the same dormitory), they were not against relaxing a little. There was only one congratulation left to them, and this is what came to be said - Santa Claus and Snowmen have to congratulate their own children! Our artists were from different families, but this evening the children were neighborly socialized and expected congratulations together. Our friends visited that for all children the congratulations were a New Year's surprise, and their children, despite the precautions, saw something from the preparations, are aware of what is happening and, of course, parents will learn. What is the surprise?
My wife and I got into the situation and said, “So what’s the problem?” Can you congratulate your children? Take the record!”
Santa Claus, I, like any adult man, have been to it many times – before and after that. But such a spectacular appearance, such opened eyes of amazement, as then, I will not remember! Even so, the children are waiting for Igor’s mother and Seroj’s dad to come with Lena, and instead of them they are coming... Santa Claus and Snowmen! It happened amazingly. Here the parents of the children appeared: "We need to, Santa and Snowmen!“!”
In general, everything went well, which was noted during the subsequent working discussion within the kitchen...
The new year is rushing to us.

Putin said that in the event of agreements with Ukraine, gas for final consumers in Ukraine could be cheaper by 25%.
Dear Vladimir Vladimirovich, what need to be agreed with the government to the population of the Russian Federation, so that our gas is cheaper at least by some percentage?
