A tramp goes into a bar
Barman asks "what do you want"
"a budwiser" he replied,
"have you got any money" the barman asked
"No" said the tramp, "but if I show you something spectacular would you ley me have one"
"well if it were really spectacular,I may consider" was the reply,
the tramp takes a hamster out of his pocket puts it on the bar and tells it,"go on then do your thing",
the hamster runs along the bar,jumps over to the piano,lifts the lid, and starts playing Bethovens 5 symphony,the bar goes quiet and listens,when it finished everyone clapped, it jumped back to the bar and ran back to the tramp.
the barman said to the tramp,heres your drink.
the tramp took it and sat a table drinkig it,when he finished went bar to the bar and said"if I show you something even more spectacular could I have another","go no then" said the barman,so the tramp pulled a frog out of his poket and said "go on then do your thing", the frog started singing just like Pavaroti, again the bar went quiet, and when it finished everyone applauded. the barmen gave him another drink,one of the customers went up to the tramp,and said "I want that frog,my wife adores Pavaroti,I`ll give you 50bucks for it","not for sale"the tramp replied,"75bucks"the man said,"I don`t know said the tramp,"ok this is my final offer" said the man"100bucks","ok then said the tramp.
the deal was done the man gave the tramp 100bucks,and the tramp handed over the frog.
The barman said to the tramp"no wonder you have no money that frog singing like Pavaroti is worth millions".
the tramp replied "that frog can`t sing its worth nothing","but we all heard it sing" said the barman.
the tramp replied"no he didn`t,but the hamster is a great ventriloquist"
