A young man named John received a parrot as a gift. 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!
