One day, the frog decided he'd had enough of this country-life and that he was going to pack eveything up and move to the city. He took all of his belongings, wrapped them up in a scarf, tied the scarf to the end of a stick, and, hopped into town with the stick over his shoulder.
Once in town, he figured he needed to go to the bank, get a loan, and start a business. So, he hopped in to the bank, and located a loan officer. The name plate on her desk read "Patty Black -Loan Officer".
So the frog hopped up on her desk, and the following conversation ensued:
Frog: "I need a loan to start a business."
Patty: "Fine, no problem, what do you have for collateral?"
Frog - pulling a small object out of his sack: "I have this."
Patty: "What is it, I've never seen anything like this before. I don't know what it's worth. I'll need
to speak with my supervisor"
Patty, then goes in to the office of the bank president and says: "Sir, I have a Frog on my desk
that is requesting a loan and wants to use this as collateral, but, I don't know what it is, or, what's its worth", and then hands the object to the president.
The president takes the object, leans back in his chair and says "Goodness, I haven't seen one of these in years! My grandmother used to have a couple of these!"
Patty: "Well, what IS it?"
Bank President: "Why, it's a knick-knack, Patty Black, Give the Frog a Loan!"
