A gentleman entered a tavern, and the first thing the bartender
noticed about him was the big smile on his face.  The gentleman sat
down and said, "I'd like a beer, and I'd like to but everyone in here

There weren't that many people in the place, but the bartender got

still smiling, sipping his beer.  Finally, he said, "I guess you're
wondering why I'm so happy.  Well, I'll tell you why.  For many years
now, I've had a serious hearing problem.  It's been very difficult for

hearing aid.  It cost a lot, but I finally got it; picked it up this
afternoon.  It's the best hearing aid money can buy, and now I've got
it, and I'm celebrating!"
