FAIRY TALE FOR WOMEN OF THE 21st CENTURY

Once upon a time,

in a land far away,

a beautiful, independent,

self-assured princess

happened upon a frog as she sat,

contemplating ecological issues

on the shores of an unpolluted pond

in a verdant meadow near her castle.

The frog hopped into the princess' lap

and said: Elegant Lady,

I was once a handsome prince,

until an evil witch cast a spell upon me.

One kiss from you, however,

and I will turn back

into the dapper, young prince that I am

and then, my sweet, we can marry

and setup housekeeping in your castle

with my mother,

where you can prepare my meals,

clean my clothes, bear my children,

and forever

feel grateful and happy doing so.

That night,

as the princess dined sumptuously

on a repast of lightly sautéed frog legs

seasoned in a white wine

and onion cream sauce,

she chuckled and thought to herself:

I don't think so.

Yes, a rhousand times yes.

That was hilarious.

Sums up my feelings quite nicely.

One day a nerd was sitting by a pond when a frog hopped up and said, “Help me! I’m a princess enchanted by an evil magician. Kiss me and turn me back and I’ll do anything you want!”

The nerd shrugged and put the frog in his pocket. The frog said, “Don’t you understand? If you kiss me, I’ll turn into a beautiful young woman, and I’ll do anything you want!”

The nerd said, “I’m a computer scientist. I don’t have time for a girlfriend. But a talking frog, now, that’s cool!”
