The Sketch about the new intellectual idea
Residents of the vast region on the shores of the Great Ocean were ready solemnly. To them the member of the Board of the Memorial and military society went.
All considerable people gathered in the House of Receptions.
The member of the Board of the Memorial and military society entered the hall. The song "Person in love with Sakhalin" began to play. Everyone liked it. "We are located on the mainland. But who doesn't love Sakhalin?"
Member of the Board immediately got down to business.
"Cultural issues are on the agenda!".
One of the former leaders, who now went fishing, began, but never finished, a major cultural project. For some reason, his short period of rule he began with the preparation of a huge and very expensive, multi-million, cultural festival.
Neither the former leader nor the Hyper festival the support the population of the region has not received.
And now the member of the Board of the Memorial and military society showed concern. Instead of the project of an expensive festival, he proposed to erect a monument to a respected man, a General. He showed heroism not on the battlefield, but on the electoral field.
The audience felt some confusion. At first glance, the question arises: "What for?". However, if you think about it, for example, in some Siberian city the monument put in memory of Anton Pavlovich Chekhov. This monument looks oddly: an ugly man with an umbrella. But, nothing, the inhabitants of this Siberian city suffer: "Maybe the sculptor not Chekhov, but personally himself immortalized ...".
However, the member of the Board was insisting about the monument in memory of the General:
"We take care of all expenses!"- persuaded a member of the Board. - "We ask you! Grateful for what we came into your "priokeansky family"".
The wind of youth, of times of "perestroika", seemed to blow out. The inhabitants of region agreed.
The most distrustful said: "And to this monument can any citizen come?"
The member of the Board of the Memorial and military society pressed his hands to his chest and swore that he would fulfill all promises. "Remember! Has anyone violated their promises!"
"And if you will decide to change the surface of the site suddenly, then the monument will disappear?"- The most distrustful insisted. - "Fans of historical memory will gather to come to a monument, and you suddenly, at 5 o'clock in the morning, will change the surface of the site? What then?"
The Board member thought for a moment, but pretended not to hear the question. He pressed his hands to his chest and promised the abolition of CMTPL for those who buy a right-hand drive car.
Participants of meeting agreed.
The member of the Board of the Memorial and military society headed back. The song began to play:"Well, what to tell you about Sakhalin".
The most enthusiastic humans right on the square in front of the House of Receptions began to dance the waltz "On the hills of Manchuria."
