>> The parrot
>>
>> A young man named John received a parrot as an early Christmas gift.
>> The parrot
>> had a bad attitude and an even worse vocabulary. Every word out of the
>> bird's
>> mouth was rude, obnoxious and laced with profanity. John tried and tried
>> to
>> change the bird's attitude by consistently saying only polite words,
>> playing
>> soft music and anything else he could think of to 'clean up' the
>> bird's
>> vocabulary.
>>
>> Finally, John was fed up and he yelled at the parrot. The parrot
>> yelled back.
>> John shook the parrot and the parrot got angrier and more rude. John, in
>> desperation, threw up his hands, grabbed the bird and shoved him in the
>> freezer. For a few minutes the parrot squawked and kicked and screamed.
>>
>> Then suddenly there was total quiet.
>>
>> Not a peep was heard for over a minute. Fearing that he'd hurt the
>> parrot,
>> John quickly opened the door to the freezer. The parrot calmly stepped
>> out
>> onto
>> John's outstretched arms and said
>> 'I believe I may have offended you with my rude language and
>> actions. I'm
>> sincerely remorseful for my inappropriate
>> transgressions and I fully intend to do everything I can to correct my
>> rude
>> and
>> unforgivable behavior.'
>>
>> John was stunned at the change in the bird's attitude. As he was about
>> to ask
>> the parrot what had made such a dramatic change in his behavior, the bird
>> continued............'May I enquire as to what the turkey did?'
>>
>> Have a Blessed Thanksgiving Everyone!!
