A young man named Jon received a parrot as a gift. Unfortunately, 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.
Jon tried and tried to change the bird's attitude by consistently saying only polite words, playing soft music, reading scripture to the bird, and anything else he could think of to "clean up" the bird's vocabulary, but it continued to spew profanities at a remarkable rate.
Finally Jon was fed up. He yelled at the parrot. The parrot yelled back. Jon shook the parrot and the parrot got even angrier and more rude. In desperation, Jon finally grabbed the bird and shut 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.
Fearing he had killed the foul-mouthed bird, Jon quickly opened the door to the freezer. The parrot calmly stepped out onto Jon's outstretched arm and said "I believe I may have offended you with my crude language and actions. I am sincerely remorseful for any inappropriate transgressions and fully intend to do everything I can do to correct my rude and unforgivable behavior."
Jon was stunned at the change in the bird's attitude. He was about to ask the parrot why he had made such a dramatic change in his behavior, but the bird continued...
"By the way, what did the TURKEY DO?
ever since phil heard this joke, its tickled him, anyway other day we were in kitchen i was doing the tea (dinner)
nut was being her normal self, being a body rat on phil, clamboring all over him, i could hear him repeating asking her to *pack it in, etc
he was stood like a puppet, trying to scratch his back, nut had run around there, so she was outta reach
i'd finished cooking and called every1 to table, and nut, bless her understood and went onto phils shoulder, an then stepped up onto his finger,
phil then walked to the freezer an said to nut, *do you want me to show you what turkey did???:11: behave!
then popped her onto her travel cage, and of course she was behaving as tea was ready :32:
i had a giggle, at this scene of affection from phil towards the nut
