The Velvet Duck

So a thirsty penguin is waddling along a city sidewalk when he spots a bar sign that says
Penguin Night, All Penguin Drinks BOGO Free. Penguin likes the sound of that so it goes on
into the bar. The walrus bartender looks at Penguin and says. "You pass our dress code, what would you like to drink distinguished bird?"
"Oh I feel like a Velvet Duck." "So you feel like a velvet duck you says?"walrus quizzically replies.
"Yes I do indeed my good sir" Penguin confirms with a jovial, festive air.
"Well, you sure had me fooled, I could have sworn you were a penguin! Ducks pay full price tonight!
"now what would y o u like to drink Mr. Duck?"
"Never mind" Penguin rejoins, I'll just munch on some caterpillar sticks a while until I feel
like a penguin again."
"Thrifty idea." said Wally.
