An old man is sitting at the bar drinking heavily when he realizes he's out of money. He motions at the bartender and says, "if I show you something really incredible, would you give me just one more drink?" The bartender scoffs and says, "old man you've had quite enough for one night, go home." The old man begs him to reconsider and reaching into his coat pocket pulls out a baby grand piano. After placing it on the bar, he reaches into the other pocket, pulls out a frog wearing tails, and sets him down on the bar. The frog hops over to the piano, flips back his tails and is seated at the piano. To every one's absolute disbelief, the frog starts playing the most beautiful song any of them had ever heard. The bartender amazed, poured the old man a shot, which he immediately downed. He then asked for another. The bar-keep replied as he did the first time, and told the old man that while his act was incredible, he had had quite enough and should go home. The old man said; "if I show you something even more incredible than that, would you give me one more drink?" A crowd gathered around the old man as he reached yet again and pulled out the piano and the frog. As the frog hopped over and took his seat, the old man reached into his other pocket and pulled out a beautiful white mouse named Millie. As the frog started to play, the little mouse walked over, leaned on the piano, and started to sing in the most beautiful voice. A man in the audience shouted, "my god man, you've got a million dollar act. Why would you drink your life away you old fool?" Just then another patron offered the old man half a million for the mouse. The old man paused and then replied, "OK, deal." He reached into his pocket and handed over the mouse. "Drinks all around!", he yelled. The bar tender came over and said, "you foolish old drunk, you just broke up a million dollar act. The old man looked up with a smile and said, "not a chance, my frog's a ventriloquist."
