One day in a tavern, a sailor and a pirate were comparing
stories of their adventures. The pirate had a peg leg, one hook for
a hand and an eye patch. The sailor asked about his peg leg. "I
lost it in a shark attack," the pirate said.
"What happened to your hand?"
"That I lost in a sword fight," the pirate answered. And when he
was asked about his patch, he explained a seagull dropping fell
into his eye.
Astonished, the sailor said, "You mean to say that you lost your
eye because of a seagull dropping?"
"Well," the pirate replied, "it happened the first day I had the
hook."
