A Russian Couple's Nightly Ritual

Every evening for 20 years, when Mikhail and Valentina would go to bed, they would take a bottle of vodka out of the nightstand, pour a shot for each, knock it back, and go to sleep.

One night before bed, Mikhail goes to the kitchen to pour a glass of water and admire the beautiful night. But when he turns on the tap, out pops a genie.

"Mikhail, today you have been granted one wish. Think carefully what you want most in life, and it will be yours."

Mikhail takes a moment to think about it. He makes his decision, and tells the genie who says, "It is done!" The genie claps his hands and disappears in a puff of smoke.

Off Mikahil goes to the bedroom. Valentina reaches over to open the nightstand as she has done for the past 20 years, but Mikhail closes it. Valentina stares at her husband and says, "Mikhail, I don't understand. Every night for the last two decades we have had this tradition. Why the sudden change?"

With a smile Mikhail drops his pajamas to the floor and says, "Tonight my love, you drink straight from the bottle."
