The Bronze Rat

A tourist walks into a curio shop in San Francisco. Looking
around at the exotics, he noticed a very lifelike, life-size
bronze statue of a rat. It had no price tag, but it was so
striking he decided he must have it. He took it to the owner:
"How much for the bronze rat?"

"Twelve dollars for the rat, one hundred dollars for the story,"
said the owner. The tourist gave the man the twelve dollars.
"I'll just take the rat, you can keep the story."
As he walked down the street carrying his bronze rat,
he noticed that a few real rats had crawled out of the alleys
and sewers and began following him down the street. This was
disconcerting and he began walking faster. But within a couple
of blocks, the herd of rats behind hem had grown to hundreds,
and they began squealing.

He began to trot toward the Bay, looking around to see that
the rats now numbered in the millions, and were squealing and
coming toward him faster and faster. Concerned, even scared,
he ran to the edge of the Bay, and threw the bronze rat as far
out into the Bay as he could. Amazingly, the millions of rats
all jumped into the Bay after it, and were all drowned. The man
walked back to the curio shop.

"Ah ha," said the owner, "you have come back for the story?"

"No," said the man, "I came back to see if you have a bronze
Republican."
