Well, time for some old jokes at his expense. Let us start small:
Once there was a knock on his door. Blevonid* Ilyich came to the door, put his eyeglasses on, pulled out a piece of paper from his breast pocket, and read: "Who's there?".

It has been known for a long time that he wore even the medals awarded to his dog.
