A dog goes into a bar. He is wearing an eye patch. The dog says to the bartender, ‘Have you heard the one about the one-eyed dog?’ The bartender, who is deaf in one ear, thinks the dog is making fun of him. He asks him to leave. The dog says, 'Don’t you have a sense of humor, deafie?’ At the end of his shift, the bartender is tired of all the jokes. Today it’s a one-eyed dog. Yesterday it was a horse with rickets. The day before: ants. He lives above the bar in a small room. He spends the night alone there, listing to his battery-operated radio, which picks up only a bad jazz station. He listens to bad jazz with his bad ear.
