The Singing Frog
A mangy looking guy who goes into a restaurant and orders food. The
waiter says, "No way. I don't think you can pay for it."
The guy says,
"You're right. I don't have any money, but if I show you something you
haven't seen before, will you give me the food?"
"Deal!" The guy reaches
into his coat pocket and pulls out a hamster.
He puts the hamster on the counter and it runs to the end, across the
room, up the piano, jumps on the keyboard, and starts playing Gershwin
songs. And the hamster is really good. The waiter says, "You're right.
I've never seen anything like that before. That hamster is truly good on
the piano."
The guy downs the hamburger he ordered and asks the waiter
for another. "Money or another miracle," says the waiter.
The guy
reaches into his coat again and pulls out a frog. He puts the frog on
the counter, and the frog starts to sing. He has a marvelous voice and
great pitch. A fine singer.
A stranger from the other end of the counter runs over to the guy and
offers him $300 for the frog. The guy says, "It's a deal." He takes the
three hundred and gives the stranger the frog. The stranger runs out of
the restaurant. The waiter says to the guy, "Are you crazy? You sold a
singing frog for $300? It must have been worth millions." "Not so", says
the guy, "the hamster is also a ventriloquist."
