Hobo tells a joke
In downtown Chicago, a good looking hobo asked me for a quarter (in Texas they ask for a dollar!). He offered me a joke for it. I was ready to part with all my coins, but did not want a joke, to save his time, but he said, "I will tell you a Jewish joke. It is not so good though..." I assured him that all Jewish jokes are a problem anyway, and he said, "Why do Jews have such long noses? Because the air is free!"
After the payment, I told him that there was another reason. A long nose is similar to one of the letters in the Jewish alphabet (yud), and it signifies a special affinity for the divine. He said he did not know. I said that his reason might also be true, and promised to myself to think it over.
In the city of Saul Bellow, every hobo is a writer, and every blogger.
