Labrador Rescue

Recently I received a parrot as a rescue.

The parrot had a bad attitude and an even worse vocabularly. Every word out of the bird's mouth was rude, obnoxious and laced with profantiy.

Finally, I was fed up and I yelled at the parrot.

The parrot yelled back.

I shook the parrot and the parrot got angrier and even ruder.

So, in desperation, I threw up my 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 I'd hurt the parrot, I quickly opened the door to the freezer.

The parrot calmly stepped out on to my 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 everthing I can to correct my rude and unforgivable behaviour".

I was stunned at the change in the bird's attitude.

As I was about to ask the parrot what had made such a dramatic change in his behavioud, the bird continued.

"May I ask what the chicken did?"
