It was after midnight when הירשל אוסטרופולר, who loved a good drink and had a great wit, returned home after a night of drinking with his friends. He forgot to take his key, so he banged on the door and called on his wife to quickly open it. “I’ve brought home a barrel of wine,” he screamed. His wife hurried to open the door. When he came in, she asked: “Where is the barrel of wine?” Tapping his stomach with his two hands, הירשל said: “You have eyes but don’t see. It’s right here in front of you.”
