This is an old joke, I think Reader's Digest even got ahold of it once,
but I'll give it to ya anyway!


A solidarity worker, a young woman, an old lady and a russian soldier
were on a train to Minsk one morning, on their way to work. Since they
were seated across from each other, the soldier was able to cast appreciative
glances at the young woman, who was quite pretty. Suddenly, the train
entered a tunnel, and in the ensuing darkness there came the sound of
a soft kiss followed by a terrific slap. After the lights came on, there
was an embarrassed silence and the four passengers looked everywhere but
at each other. 
"Good for her", thought the old lady. "That soldier tried to get fresh
with the young girl and she belted him.".

"That's funny", thought the girl. "One of the men must have tried to kiss
me but kissed the old lady instead and she slapped him".

"This just isn't my day", thought the soldier. "That worker kissed the
girl and then she slapped me by mistake".

Meanwhile the solidarity worker was chuckling to himself and thinking:
"Gee, I'm pretty smart if I do say so myself. I kissed the back of my hand,
belted that soviet soldier and got away with it!".
