Polly is fed up with the New York Times editorial page lining the bottom of her cage.

Jim received a parrot for his birthday. The parrot was fully grown with a bad attitude & worse vocabulary. Every other word was an obscenity. Jim tried hard to change the bird's attitude by constantly saying polite words, playing soft music, anything he could think of. Nothing worked. He yelled at the bird & the bird yelled back. He shocked the bird & the bird just got more angry & more rude. Finally, in a moment of desperation, Jim put the bird in the freezer, just for a few moments. He heard the bird squawk & kick & scream - then suddenly, there was quiet.
Frightened that he might have hurt the bird, Jim quickly opened the freezer door. The parrot calmly stepped out & said "I believe I may have offended you with my rude language & actions. I'll endeavor at once to correct my behavior. I really am truly sorry & beg your forgiveness." Jim was astonished at the bird's change in attitude and was about to ask what had made such a dramatic change when the parrot continued, "Now may I ask: what did the chicken do?"

I am not trying to parrot back information, but Prince has died.

Manual Tomato - it was on the new whole day yesterday. It is sad, I like him and his music. Bad year for famous musicians so far.

Of course the man wasn't preparing the bird for his wife's return by teaching him some choice expressions and attitude, right? I mean, just askin'....

"Officer, you know that O.P.P. stands for Other People's Property, Ya down with that?" the parrot asked.

ligirl moves to the head of the class for that freezer joke. Classic humor we don't see enough of nowadays.
