The laughter in your voices

This is not my story, but I felt it had to be told anyway...

The other day, Kathy and Evan were walking down the street, talking and laughing. As they turned a corner, they didn't happen to say anything, but were still laughing about the last comment made. An old Russian woman, who therefore heard them say nothing (in Russian or English), came up to them, and said:

"When I heard the laughter in your voices, I knew that you could not be Russian."


And that, ladies and gentlemen, is the best sum-up of Russia that I could ever give.
