I read a report from Ivan Aufulich in which he said the Ministry of
Woolen Underwear has received a mandate from the Kremlin to use actual 
wool in their undergarments.  It seems Pravda wrote strongly about the 
papyrus debacle, in which some in the Ministry felt they could meet 
unmeetable deadlines by taking advantage of their special relationship 
with oil-producing nations, using papyrus instead of wool. Can we say 
itch?  A member of the Duma has leaked a memo to Ivan saying "The 
Siberians will have a warmer summer," which of course is Kremlinspeak 
for "The problem will be corrected and the people will no longer itch." 
  Ivan's report included a reference to "the duck is being cooked, and 
already it's savory", which this reporter took to mean he has obtained 
one of the new woolen undergarments through circuitous channels and is 
now more comfortable.
