    Walter answers the door at his home. (S = stranger; W = Walter)
S: Hi!I'm from Russia. My name is Vodka. I want to marry your wife.
W: With a name like that, I'm not sure she'll want to marry you.
S: So, what kind of man does she like?
W: You need to be strong, handsome and have a good sense of humor.
S: No problem. I guess I qualify then.
W: You've got to be kidding! One look at you and my wife is bound to burst out laughing.
S: Where is she anyway? Can I meet her?
W: I'm afraid she might kick the bucket before me if she meets you. Goodbye!
S: What a jerk!
