Анекдот - Бесплатная выпивка

The bartender considers it (обдумывает это), then agrees (затем соглашается). The man reaches into his pocket (лезет в свой карман) and pulls out a tiny rat (вытаскивает крошечную крысу).
He reaches into his other pocket (в другой карман) and pulls out a tiny piano (пианино). The rat stretches (вытягивается), cracks his knuckles (щелкает суставами пальцев), and proceeds to play the blues (принимается играть блюз).
After (после того, как) the man finished (закончил) his drink, he asked the bartender, «If I show you an even better (“даже лучше”) trick, will you give me free drinks for the rest of the evening? (весь оставшийся вечер)»
The bartender agrees, thinking that no trick could possibly be better than the first (думая, что ни один фокус не может быть лучше первого).
The man reaches into his pocket and pulls out a tiny rat. He reaches into his other pocket and pulls out a tiny piano. The rat stretches, cracks his knuckles, and proceeds to play the blues. The man reaches into another pocket and pulls out a small frog (лягушку), who (кто; которая) begins (начинает) to sing along (подпевать) with the rat's music.
While the man is enjoying (наслаждается) his beverages (напитки; beverage [`bev∂rıdż]), a stranger (незнакомец) confronts («встает напротив») him and offers (предлагает) him $100,000.00 for the frog. «Sorry,» the man replies (отвечает), «he's not for sale (она не для продажи).»
The stranger increases (увеличивает) the offer to $250,000.00 cash (наличными). «No,» he insists (настаивает), «he's not for sale.»
The stranger again increases the offer, this time to $500,000.00 cash. The man finally (наконец) agrees, and turns the frog over (и передает лягушку) to the stranger in exchange for the money (в обмен на деньги).
«Are you insane? (вы ненормальный)» the bartender demanded (спрашивает).
«That frog could have been worth millions to you (могла бы принести вам миллионы; worth – стоящий, имеющий ценность), and you let him go for a mere (а вы отдали ее всего-то за) $500,000!»
«Don't worry about it (не волнуйтесь “об этом”),» the man answered (ответил). «The frog was really nothing special (лягушка не была чем-то особенным). You see (видите ли), the rat's a ventriloquist (чревовещательница).»
