To light up the weekend folks here goes the story of a parrot:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
So there's this fella with a parrot.  And this parrot
swears like a sailor, I mean he's a pistol. He can
swear for five minutes straight without repeating
himself. Trouble is, the guy who owns him is a quiet,
conservative type, and this bird's foul mouth is driving
him crazy. One day, it gets to be too much,so the guy
grabs the bird by the throat, shakes him really hard,
and yells "QUIT IT!".

But this just makes the bird mad and he swears more
than ever.  Then the guy gets mad and says, "OK for
you" and locks the bird in a kitchen cabinet.

This really aggravates the bird, and he claws and
scratches and when the guy finally lets him out, the
bird cuts loose with a stream of vulgarities that would
make a veteran sailor blush. At that point, the guy is
so mad that he throws the bird into the freezer.

For the first few seconds there is a terrible din. The
bird kicks and claws and  thrashes. Then it suddenly
gets very, very quiet. At first the guy just waits, but
then he starts to think that the bird may be hurt.
After a couple of minutes of silence, he's so worried
that he opens up the freezer door.

The bird calmly climbs onto the man's outstretched
arm and says, "Awfully sorry about the trouble I gave
you. I'll do my best to improve my vocabulary from
now on."

The man is astounded. He can't understand the
transformation that has come over the parrot. Then
the parrot says, "By the way, what did the chicken do?"
