A Polite Reminder...

Max received a parrot for his birthday.

The parrot was fully-grown with a bad attitude and worse vocabulary. Every other word was an expletive. Those that weren’t expletives were, to say the least very rude.

Max tried hard to change the bird’s attitude and was constantly saying polite words, playing soft music, anything he could think of to try and set a good example. Nothing worked.

He yelled at the bird and the bird yelled back. He shook the bird and the bird just got angrier and became even more rude. Finally in a moment of desperation. Max put the parrot in the FREEZER.

For a few moments he heard the bird squawk and kick and scream. Then suddenly, there was silence…..

-Not a sound for half a minute. Max was frightened that he might have hurt the bird and quickly opened the freezer door.

The Parrot calmly stepped out onto Max’s extended arm and said:

“I believe I may have offended you with my rude language and actions. I will endeavor at once to correct my behavior. I really am truly sorry and beg your forgiveness.”

Max was astonished at the bird’s change in attitude and was about to ask what had made the difference and caused such a dramatic change when the parrot continued:

“May I ask what the turkey did???”

Don't Forget to Take the Turkey Out of the Freezer!
