Don't know if I should be rolling around on the floor with laughter (someone forget to tell the good professor how heavily armed Alaska is?) or getting ready to fight the Russians.

Tell the Russians that when they get here I'll be expecting one of those hats and some proper vodka.

Well just make sure you don't shoot any holes in my new hat or in my vodka. Better tell them to bring me a whole bunch just in case some gets destroyed in the battle.
