A frog walks into a bank. He goes up to a bank teller who has a little name tag on as they usually do. On it, it says “Patricia Whack.”
So, the frog asks her, “Can I get a loan?
“Well, I don’t know,” she says. “you’re a frog.”
“Well, I know, but I still want a loan.”
“What’s your name?”
“Kermit”
“You’re not Mr. Frog?”
“No, no, no. My mother’s a frog so she named me Kermit. Mick Jagger is my father, so I’m named Kermit Jagger. Anyway, I want a $30,000 loan for a new lily pad”
“Well you can’t get a loan. I mean, what do you have for collateral?”
“Well I have this,” says the Frog,” and pulls out a little shiny pink elephant.
Mrs. Whack looks at it and says to Kermit, “I don’t think this is much collateral, but I’ll talk to our bank manager.”
So, Mrs. Whack walks over and knocks on the bank manager’s door. She says, “Excuse me Buford, but I have a frog out there named Kermit Jagger who says he wants a loan. He gave me this danged thing for collateral. Do you I have any idea what it is?
The bank manager examines it and says,
“Well, of course! It’s a knick-knack, Patty Whack. Give that Frog a loan. His old man’s a Rolling Stone.”
