A collage of comic exchanges and village observations unfolds from a Alpine man’s joke about a mustache on fire to a diner complaint about steak tenderness. Humorous vignettes include a professor asked to pass nuts, an absentminded scholar, and a joke about a deaf mute carpenter misplacing his tools after hitting his thumb.
