Every word out of the bird's mouth was rude, obnoxious or profane. 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 in his frustration. The parrot yelled back. John shook the parrot and the parrot got angrier and even more rude. John, in desperation, grabbed the bird and put him in the freezer, hoping to calm him. 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 meekly said, "I believe I may have offended you with my rude language and actions. I'm sincerely remorseful for my 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 caused such a dramatic change in his behavior the bird continued, "May I ask what the turkey did?" =========== LOL. Good one. Happy Thanksgiving to you, too. Marnie :-) --------------------------------------------- Warning: I am now filtering my email, so you may be censored. **************Life should be easier.
