OK,


What can I do to reinstate myself in the good books of Lee?

Here's a (very) little joke:

A frog goes into a bank, and hops up on the loans desk.

''Hello,'' he croaks.

"Hello!", replies the stunned bank clerk.

''What's your name?'', asked the frog,

The bank clerk says, ''My name is John Paddywack. How may I help you?''

''Well,'' says the frog. ''I'd like to borrow some money.''

The clerk finds this a little odd, but gets out a form.

''Of course sir. can you give me your name please?''

The frog replies, ''Kermit Jagger.''

''Really?'' says the clerk. ''Any relation to Mick Jagger?''

''Yeah, he's my dad.''

''Hmmm,'' says the clerk. ''Do you have any capital or property to secure this loan?''

The frog hands over a pink ceramic elephant and asks, ''Will this do?''

The clerk says, '

'Um, I'm not sure. Let me go and discuss this with the bank manager.''

''Oh, tell him I said hi,'' adds the frog. ''He knows me.''

The clerk goes in to the manager and says, ''Excuse me, sir, but there's a frog out there named Kermit Jagger who wants to borrow some money. All he has for security is this pink elephant thing; I'm not even sure what it is.''

The manager says: ''It's a knick-knack, Paddywack, give the frog a loan; his old man's a Rolling Stone.''
