Four brothers left home for college, and they became successful doctors and lawyers. One evening, they chatted after having dinner together. They discussed the 95th birthday gifts they were able to give their elderly Mama, who had moved to Florida.

Dannie said, “You know, I had a big house built for Mama.”

Mickey said, ” And I had a large theater built in her house.”

Jimmie said, “And I had my Mercedes dealer deliver an SL600 to her.”

Eddie said, “You know how Mama loved reading the Bible, and you know she can’t read anymore because she can’t see very well. I met a preacher who told me about a parrot who could recite the entire Bible. It took ten preachers almost 8 years to teach him.

To get the bird, I had to pledge to contribute $50,000 a year for five years to the church, but it was worth it. Mama only has to name the chapter and verse, and the parrot will recite it.”

The other brothers were impressed.

After the celebration, Mama sent out her “Thank You” notes.

She wrote: Dannie, the house you built is so huge that I live in only one room, but I have to clean the whole house. Thanks anyway.”

“Jimmie, I am too old to travel. I stay home; I have my groceries delivered, so I never use the Mercedes. But the thought was good. Thanks.”

“Michael, you gave me an expensive theater with Dolby sound and it can hold 50 people, but all of my friends are dead, I’ve lost my hearing, and I’m nearly blind. I’ll never use it. Thank you for the gesture, just the same.”

“Dearest Eddie, you were the only son to have the good sense to give a little thought to your gift.



The chicken was delicious!

Thank you so much.”

Love, Mama

I can relate! I watch youtube videos of people getting bitten seriously by big parrots, and that can be frequently and thought to myself, do parrots taste like chicken? Seriously, I would not do that or recommend it, but after watching the videos I will never own a big bird.
