A Russian couple were walking down a street in Moscow one night when the man felt a drop hit his nose. The husband said to his wife, "I think it's raining." The wife replied, "No, that felt like snow to me, dear." The husband said, "No, I'm sure that it was just rain." 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 towards them. The husband said, "Let's not fight about it. Let's ask Comrade Rudolph whether it's officially raining or snowing." As Comrade Rudolph approached, the husband said, "Tell us, Comrade Rudolph, is it raining or snowing?" Comrade Rudolph answered, "It's raining, of course." As Comrade Rudolph walked away, the wife still insisted that it was snowing. The husband finally said, "Dear, you are wrong. Rudolph the Red knows rain, dear."
