An acquaintance who visited the Soviet Union during Lenin's centennial reported that there were signs all over saying, "Lenin lived; Lenin lives; Lenin will live."

An old man rings the Moscow central telephone exchange and says he has to talk to Lenin about a matter of great urgency. "You can't talk to Lenin," the operator says. "He's dead." "Isn't that the way?" the old man grumbles. "When I want to talk to him, all of a sudden he's dead."
