SMILE FOR THE DAY
With national parrot day coming up later in November, here are a
few smiles featuring our feathered friends...
An elderly man was sitting on a bench in Hyde Park when a young lad
walked up to the bench and sat down next to him. He had spiked hair with
several different colours - green, red, orange, blue, and yellow!
The old man just stared at him.
"What's the matter, old man," said the youngster,
"have you never done anything wild in your life?"
The old man stared for a few seconds and then replied slowly:
"Well, I once got drunk and 'played around' with a parrot. I was just
wondering if you were my son...!"
And then there is this one...
On reaching his plane seat, a passenger was surprised to see a
parrot strapped in next to him. Being shy, he decided to say nothing about
it but just asked the stewardess for a coffee. At the same time, the
parrot squawked: "...and get me a whisky you cow!"
Several minutes later, the stewardess brought back a whisky
for the parrot but forgot the passengers' coffee. When this omission was
pointed out to her, she told the passenger that she would go and get him
his coffee. Just then the parrot drained its glass and squawked:
"...and get me another whisky, you ugly cow!"
Quite upset, the stewardess returned with another whisky, but
still no coffee. Unaccustomed to such slackness, the man decided to try
the parrot's approach and called out to the stewardess:
"I've asked you twice for a coffee, get it now or I'll
give you a slap". The next moment both he and the parrot were
wrenched up and thrown out of the emergency exit by two burly stewards.
Plunging downwards, the parrot turned to the passenger and said:
"For someone who can't fly, you're a cheeky so and
so...!" |
