A stranger asks old Simon Wheeler about a man named Jim Smiley. Wheeler launches into a long, slow story of Smiley, who would bet on anything, including his frog Dan'l Webster, trained to jump. Then a stranger shows up with a bet of his own. Mark Twain's first great success, from 1865, is a tall tale told with a straight face. Read by Mike Polischuk in seventeen minutes. It is a story about one man's frog, and a lot more about the man telling it, and it is funny every time.
