    AK> Another strange expression in English. In Russia we see it like "It is   
    AK> the best such people like you can do! (and very possibly there are a lot

   That's an unfortunate interpretation.  I think most people   
   would say to mean something like, "I see and am pleased that   
   something good has happened to you" or perhaps "I am happy   
   that something good has happened to you."   
      
    AK> But in reality you probably mean "You are a smart guy!"?   
      
   I don't think it's usually a statement of intelligence; it's   
   rather more general than that.  It's often used as an   
   expression where you might say, "that is good" or "that is great".
