How did you get fleas?

George

Because my cousin's imbecile dog was rolling around outside and they got in his carpet.

Jerry

Maybe you can get yourself a little bowtie flea collar.

George

That's not funny. So, are you coming to the party?

Jerry

I'd go, but Long Island, it's so far out, it smacks of desperation. The whole party, everyone's gonna be saying to me, 'You came all the way out from Manhattan for this?'
