Back in 1984, Comrade Lyshenko is called into the office of the factory manager, who says: Comrade Lyshenko, in view of your service in the factory and to the Soviet Union (Stalin be praised!) I am delighted to tell you that you have moved close to the top of the line to receive a new car, and you will be getting it on May 2, 1985. Aren't you delighted?

Will I be getting it in the morning, or in the afternoon?

What difference does it make?

Well, the plumber is scheduled to come to our house in the morning.
