Zamolazhivat'

[Steve Marder]

I am passing on the following joke without comment.
____________________________________________

“Zamolazhivaet, odnako!” — skazal yamshchik i ukazal knutom na xmuroe nebo.

Poruchik Vladimir Ivanovich Dal’ sil’nee zakutalsya v tulup, dostal
zapisnuyu knizhku i zapisal v nee: “Zamolazhivaet — bystro xolodaet”.

Tak rodilsya pervyy tolkovyy slovar’ russkogo yazyka.

— Zamolazhivaet, — povtoril yamshchik i dobavil, — nado by
potolopit’sya, balin. Xolosho by do vechela doblat’sya. No-o-o!
