A little Thanksgiving humor.
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 even ruder. John, in
desperation, threw up his hands, grabbed the bird and
put 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 ask what the turkey did?"
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
