A circus owner walked into a bar to see everyone crowded around a table watching a little show. On the table was an upside-down pot and a duck tap-dancing on it. The circus owner was so impressed that he offered to buy the duck from its owner. After some negotiations, they settled on a figure of $10,000 for the duck and the pot.
Three days later the circus owner runs back to the bar in anger. "Your duck is a rip off!" he said: "I put him on the pot before a whole audience, and he didn't dance a single step!"
"Well sure," says the duck’s former owner: "You have to remember to light the candle under the pot."
