The Magical Frog, The Bear, and the Rabbit

    Once upon a time there was a frog who lived in a lake all by himself.  He had been given special powers by a local witch.

    One day he finally ventured out of the lake to get his first glimpse of the world outside.  The first thing he saw was a bear chasing a rabbit, and so he called out to them and asked them to stop.  Then he said to them:  “I am a magical frog, and since you are the first two animals I have ever seen, I am going to grant you both three wishes.  You will each take turns using them and you have to use them now.”

    The bear, being greedy, went first.  “I would like for every bear in this forest to be female except for me.”  A magical sound and it was done.

    Then it was the rabbit’s turn:  “I would like a helmet.”  This confused both the frog and the bear, but after a magical sound, there was a helmet.

    It was the bear’s turn again.  “I would like for every bear in the neighboring forest to be female.”  A magical sound and it was done.

    The rabbit went again.  “I would like a motorcycle.”  Both the frog and the bear wondered why the rabbit didn’t just ask for a lot of money with which he could buy himself a motorcycle, but after a magical sound there was a motorcycle.

    The bear took his last wish.  “I would like for all the bears in the world to be female except for me.”  A magical sound and it was done.

    The rabbit then put on his helmet, started up the motorcycle, and said:  “I wish the bear was gay,” and took off like a bat out hell.
