Turkey Humor
A young man named John received a parrot as an early Christmas gift. Theparrot had a bad attitude and an even worse vocabulary. Every word outof the bird’s mouth was rude, obnoxious and laced with profanity. Johntried and tried to change the bird’s attitude by consistently sayingonly polite words, playing soft music and anything else he could thinkof to ‘clean up’ the bird’s vocabulary.
.
Finally, John was fed up and he yelled at the parrot. The parrot yelledback. John shook the parrot and the parrot got angrier and even ruder.
.
John, in desperation, threw up his hands, grabbed the bird and shovedhim in the freezer.
For a few minutes the parrot squawked and kicked and screamed. Thensuddenly there was total quiet. Not a peep was heard for over a minute.
.
Fearing that he’d hurt the parrot, John quickly opened the d oor to thefreezer. The parrot calmly stepped out onto John’s outstretched arms andsaid ‘I believe I may have offended you with my rude language andactions. I’m sincerely remorseful for my inappropriate transgressionsand I fully intend to do everything I can to correct my rude andunforgivable behavior.’
.
John was stunned at the change in the bird’s attitude. As he was aboutto ask the parrot what had made such a dramatic change in his behavior,the bird continued….
.
……..’May I enquire as to what the turkey did?’

Have a Happy Thanksgiving!!!
