Subject: Parrot
Mrs. Davidson's dishwasher quit, so she called a repairman.
He couldn't give an evening appointment. Since she had to
go to work the next day, she told him: "I'll leave the key
under the mat. Fix the dishwasher, leave the bill on the
counter, and I'll mail you the check. By the way, don't
worry about my Doberman. He won't bother you. But, whatever
you do, do NOT under any circumstances talk to my parrot!"
When the repairman arrived at Mrs. Davidson's apartment the
next day, he discovered the biggest and meanest looking
Doberman he had ever seen. But, just as she had said, the
dog just lay there on the carpet, watching the repairman
go about his business. However, all the time he was
there, the parrot drove him nuts with his incessant yelling,
cursing, and name-calling. Finally the repairman couldn't
contain himself any longer and yelled:
"Shut up, you stupid ugly bird!"
To which the parrot replied: "Sick him, Spike!" |
