this made me laugh
13 Dec - An accountant who studied birds was given a rare Parrot as a present, but he soon discovered that the bird liked to use rude words and behave badly.
The accountant tried hard to change the Parrot's bad language and attitude by talking to it politely and playing it soft music; anything in fact that could show the bird a good example to follow. But nothing worked. He shouted at the bird and the bird shouted back. He shook the bird, but that just made matters worse.
Finally, in desperation, he put the parrot in the freezer. For a few moments he heard the bird squawk and kick and scream, but then there was silence. Not a sound for nearly a minute. Worried that he might have hurt the bird, the accountant quickly opened the freezer door.
The parrot calmly stepped out and said: "I believe I may have offended you with my rude language and actions. I will endeavour at once to correct my behaviour. I really am truly sorry and beg your forgiveness."
Astonished at the bird's change in attitude, the accountant was about to ask what had made such a dramatic change, when the parrot continued: "May I ask what the chicken did?"
