Tom Poje Posted September 30, 2003 Share Posted September 30, 2003 A frog goes into a bank and approaches the teller. He can see from her nameplate that her name is Patricia Whack. "Miss Whack, I'd like to get a $30,000 loan to take a holiday." Patty looks at the frog in disbelief and asks his name. The frog says his name is Kermit Jagger, his dad is Mick Jagger, and that it's okay, he knows the bank manager. Patty explains that he will need to secure the loan with some collateral. The frog says, "Sure. I have this," and produces a tiny porcelain elephant, about half an inch tall - bright pink and perfectly formed. Very confused, Patty explains that she'll have to consult with the bank manager and disappears into a back office. She finds the manager and says, "There's a frog called Kermit Jagger out there who claims to know you and wants to borrow $30,000. And he wants to use this as collateral!" She holds up the tiny pink elephant. "I mean, what in the world is this?" (you're gonna love this) The bank manager looks back at her and says... "It's a knick knack, Patty Whack. Give the frog a loan. His old man's a Rolling Stone." (You're singing it, aren't you?!! - I knew you would be.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCK Posted October 3, 2003 Share Posted October 3, 2003 It is reassuring to note that life is not stagnant, and that some things grow and improve. When I first heard this joke about 30 years ago, the frog was a dog, and he was not related to a Rolling Stone. Clearly better now. RCK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
