The smoky mood is effectively conveyed by the restricted and warm palette increasing the conviviality of the scene. Each dog seems to have his own quiet story, generating mystery, that sine qua non of the bona fido masterpiece.

Well, "Deenie" Goodyear respectfully preserved a strong sense of moral dignity in her life. To her determined sensibilities, it was beneath a dog to enter into an uncultivated activity such as a poker game, let alone to expose one's fair breasts, immodestly sitting tall before the master's table! God rest her noble soul. She was an inspired and devout client, who quietly and piously lived out her years down-east along the blueberry coast of Maine.

Guy and a dog go into a bar. Bartender says "Get out...we don't allow dogs!" Guy says, "But you don't understand. This is Travis, the Amazing Talking Dog." Bartender says, "Show me." Guy asks dog, "OK, Travis, what's on top of a house?" Dog answers, "RUUF!" Guy asks, "What's sandpaper feel like?" Dog answers, "RUUF!" Guy asks, "Who was the greatest baseball player ever?" Dog answers, "RUUF!" Bartender snorts, "Okay, that's enough of you two!" and pitches them both into the street.
Guy demands, "What happened??? How could you let me down this way???" Dog looks up and says, "Maybe I should have said Joe DiMaggio."
