“Roof” says Fido.
“Oh, come on,” says the bartender. “I’m not buying you a beer for that!”
“OK, OK. Fido. How does sandpaper feel?”
“Ruff” says the dog.
“No, no. that doesn’t earn you a beer!”
“alright, says the dog owner. “how ‘bout this? Fido, who was the greatest baseball player who ever lived?”
“Ruth.”
The bartender kicks the man and his dog out of the bar.
