A man walks into a bar and asks the bartender, "If I show you a really
good trick, will you give me a free drink?"

The bartender considers it, then agrees.

The man reaches into his pocket and pulls out a tiny rat. He reaches into
his other pocket and pulls out a tiny piano. The rat stretches, cracks
his knuckles, and proceeds to play the blues.

After the man finished his drink, he asked the bartender, "If I show you an
even better trick, will you give me free drinks for the rest of the evening?"

The bartender agrees, thinking that no trick could possibly be better than
the first.

The man reaches into his pocket and again pulls out the tiny rat and tiny
piano. The rat again stretches, cracks his knuckles, and proceeds to play
the blues. The man then reaches into another pocket and pulls out a tiny
bullfrog, who begins to sing along with the rat's music.

While the man is enjoying his beverages, a stranger confronts him and
offers him $100,000.00 for the bullfrog.

"Sorry," the man replies, "he's not for sale."

The stranger increases the offer to $250,000.00 cash up front.

"No," he insists, "he's not for sale."

The stranger again increases the offer, this time to $500,000.00 cash.

The man finally agrees, and, in exchange for the money, turns the frog
over to the stranger.

"Are you insane?" the bartender demanded. "That frog could have been
worth millions to you, and you let him go for a mere $500,000!"

"Don't worry about it." the man answered. "The frog was really nothing
special. You see, the rat's a ventriloquist."
