    So, this man walks into a bar and orders a drink. After a short while, the guy standing next to him asks him if he'd like to see something he's never seen before. He thinks about it and says: "Sure, go ahead." The man reaches into a black bag and then withdraws a small piano and places it on the bar. This is followed by a small stool, and finally, by a foot-tall man in a tuxedo. The little man sits on the stool and begins to play beautifully. The first man is just amazed and asks him where he ever got such a thing. Oh, it's easy said the second man. I have this magical lamp, I just rubbed it and wished for what I wanted. In fact, I have it with me if you'd care to give it a try. The first man can't believe the generosity of the offer, exclaims "Thanks! Wow.", takes the lamp and rubs it furiously. About 20 minutes later the bar starts to fill with ducks. Ducks begin to appear everywhere. Huge numbers of ducks. The numbers appear to increase endlessly. The first man says: "I don't understand this. What's going on? I asked for a million bucks." The second man replies: "Well, you don't think I wished for a twelve-inch pianist, do you?"
