A man named John received a parrot as a gift. The parrot had a bad attitude and an even worse vocabulary. Every word out of the birdās mouth was rude, obnoxious and laced with profanity.
John tried and tried to change the birdās attitude by consistently saying only polite words, playing soft music and anything else he could think of to āclean upā the birdās vocabulary.
Finally, John was fed up and he yelled at the parrot. The parrot yelled back. John shook the parrot and the parrot got angrier and even more rude. John, in desperation, threw up his hand, 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 he hurt the parrot, John quickly opened the door to the freezer. The parrot calmly stepped out onto Johnās outstretched arms and said āI believe I may have offended you with my rude language and actions. Iām sincerely remorseful for my inappropriate transgressions and I fully intend to do everything I can to correct my rude and unforgivable behavior.ā
John was stunned at the change in the birdās attitude. As he was about to ask the parrot what had made such a dramatic change in his behavior, the bird spoke-up, very softly, āMay I ask what the turkey did?ā
