Bad Joke Time ....

A frog goes into a bank and approaches the desk. He can see from the nameplate that the teller's name is Patricia Whack. So he says, "Ms. Whack, I'd like to get a loan to buy a boat and go on a long vacation."

Patti looks at the frog in disbelief and asks how much he wants to borrow.

The frog says £30,000

The teller asks his name and the frog says that his name is Kermit Jagger and that it's OK, he knows the bank manager.

Patti explains that £30,000 is a substantial amount of money and that he will need to secure some collateral against the loan. She asks if he has anything he can use as collateral. The frog says, "Sure. I have this," and produces a tiny pink porcelain elephant, about half an inch tall. Bright pink and perfectly formed. Very confused, Patti explains that she'll have to consult with the 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 is this?"

So the bank manager looks back at her and says: "It's a knick knack, Patti Whack. Give the frog a loan. His old man's a Rolling Stone" ............

Awesome capture!

One bad frog joke desreves another.

Once upon a time, in a land far away, a beautiful,
independent, self assured princess happened upon a
frog as she sat by a pond in a verdant near her castle.

The frog hopped into the princess' lap and said
"Elegant Lady, I was once a handsome price, until an
evil witch cast a spell upon me. One kiss from you,
however, and I will turn back into the dapper, young
price that I am. Then, my sweet, we can marry and
setup housekeeping in yon castle with my mother, where
you can prepare my meals, clean my clothes, bear my
children, and forever feel grateful and happy
doing so."

That night, as the princess dined sumptuously on lightly sauted frog legs seasoned in a whitewine and onion cream sauce, she chuckled to herself and thought: "I don't fricking think so!"
