Variation on the classic joke, usually constructed as a “rule of threes” tale. Man bets bartender his dog talks, can answer three questions. Bartender takes bet. Man asks… Q1: How does sandpaper feel? Dog: RRRRUFF! Q2: What’s on top of a house? Dog: RRRROOF! Q3: Who’s the greatest baseball player of all time? Dog: RRRRUTH! Bartender dismisses this as a swindle, throws them out. Dog says to Man, “Do you think I should have said ‘DiMaggio’?” (Or Aaron… or take your pick.) This strip version is more compact, more elegant, expects a bit more of the reader, but the original is classic in format and “plot” as it builds then demolishes expectstions.
