Organizing Genius


An engineer meets a frog who offers the engineer anything he wants if he will kiss the frog.

"No," says the engineer.

"Come on," says the frog. "Kiss me, and I'll turn into a beautiful woman."

"Nah," says the engineer. "I don't have time for a girlfriend ...but a talking frog, that's really neat."
