The Parrot who used to be a Mascot in a Brothel
This woman walked into a pet store one day and asked the clerk if he had any Parrots...
"Yes" he replied, then leading her to the parrots he said "I have this one here--he's an adolescent & he has NO vocabulary yet... his price is $300.00--I also have this young adult here (pointing at next parrot) he's a young adult, with quite an extensive vocabulary... his price is $25.00..."
The woman asks the clerk "That's quite a price difference... why?"
The clerk replies "Well ma'am, this young adult used to be a mascot in a brothel before it was busted, and most of his language is pretty crude, so most people don't want him because he might offend someone."
The woman says, "The reason I ask is I'm buying a present for my husband for his birthday--and he's always wanted a talking parrot. I don't have a problem with crude language, and I'd rather spend $25.00 than $300.00, so I'll take the $25.00 parrot."
The clerk takes the parrot and cage to the checkout counter and rings it up, after the woman pays him and starts to leave he tells her "By the way, if you want the parrot to be quiet, because of guests or whatever, just put a cover over the cage and the parrot will go to sleep..."
"Thanks" says the woman and she leaves... when she arrives home she places the birdcage on an end table, then she calls her bridge-buddies up and invites them over for a few games of bridge. Then, remembering what the clerk said, she places a cover over the cage.
A few hours later, she and her buddies are there playing bridge, smoking, drinking, cracking a few jokes, etc., when her husband George comes home from work.
As soon as he walks in she says "Hi honey! Happy Birthday!" and she points to the covered birdcage... "OH-BOY!" says George, and he walks over to the cage and pulls off the cover.
The Parrot wakes up, pulls it's head out from under its wing, looks around, then whistles and says "New House..." then eyeballing the card players it says "New Girls..." then it looks at him and says "Same 'ole George... Hello George!"
