Once upon a time in a land far away, a beautiful, independent,
self-assured princess happened upon a frog.
She sat, contemplating ecological issues on the shores of an
unpolluted pond in a verdant meadow near her castle.
The frog hopped onto the princess' lap and said: "Elegant lady, I was
once a handsome prince, until an evil witch cast a spell upon me."
The frog continued, "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 set up housekeeping in your castle."
"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
sauteed frog legs seasoned in a white wine and onion cream sauce, she
chuckled to herself and thought, "I don't friggin think so."
