Being the kind soul that he was, he pryed open the trap to set the animal free. Well, to his shock and surprise the furry animal stood up, introduced himself as an elf and granted the farmer one wish. A year later in a nightclub, the star attraction is none other than the farmer. He walks on stage, opens his suitcase and a little ten inch man jumps out. Next the farmer pulls out a miniature grand piano, which the ten inch man sits down to play. The little man plays beautifully and at the end of his concert is given a standing ovation. Later on backstage, the farmer is talking to a reporter. "Where did you find that ten inch pianist" he inquires. "Well", the farmer explains his meeting in the woods, "I wished for something else, but the elf was a little hard of hearing". -- Steve Grice
