RUDE PARROT (via Terry Smith) A young man named John received a parrot as a gift. The parrot had a bad attitude and an even worse vocabulary. Every word out of the birds mouth was obnoxious and laced with profanity. John tried and tried to change the birds attitude by consistently saying only polite words, playing soft music and anything else he could think of to clean up the birds vocabulary. Finally, John got fed up and he yelled at the parrot, but the parrot yelled back. then John shook the parrot which made the parrot more rude. In desperation, John grabbed the bird and put him in the freezer. For a few minutes the parrot squawked and tried to get out. Then suddenly there was total quiet and John didnt hear a peep for an entire minute. Fearing that hed hurt the parrot, John quickly opened the door to the freezer. The parrot calmly stepped into Johns hands and said, I believe I may have offended you with my rude language and actions. Im sincerely remorseful for my inappropriate behavior and words, and I fully intend to do everything I can from here on. John was stunned at the change in the birds attitude. As he was about to ask the parrot what had made such a dramatic change in his behavior, the bird spoke-up very softly, May I ask what the turkey did? Happy Thanksgiving!
