The other day, my wife & I decided we needed a new car.  Being short
of cash, I went to the bank to see the loan arranger (you know, the
man in the mask with the silver bullets).

While I was there, his assistant, a Mr. Paddywack, interrupted us to
get his boss to approve a rather unusual loan request.  It seems that
Kermit the Frog had come in to borrow $150,000 to complete a
court-ordered settlement to Miss Piggy, but all he had for collateral
was a small Faberge horse, an exquisite piece of solid gold with
emeralds for eyes, jeweled harness, & intricate detail work.  The
assistant was clearly at a loss, being more used to working with
account books that objets d'art.  In fact, his first words to us were,
"What is this, anyway?"  To which his boss replied,








	It's a knick-knack, Paddywack, give the Frog a loan.
