One day a lady had her washing machine break. She called the repair shop to have someone come and fix it. They told her they could come the next day as somebody cancelled or it would be over 2 weeks.
"Well I'm going to be out tomorrow, but I will leave the key under the flowerpot. You can come in fix my washer, leave the bill on the counter and I will post you a cheque the following day. I must warn you however, I have a Rottwieller (sp?) and a parrot. The dog is just a big teddy bear, he won't bother you but I must tell you under no circumstances are you to talk to the parrot. Remember do not talk to the parrot."
The next day the repairman shows up finds the key lets himself in and there is the dog and there in the cage is a very talkative parrot. He starts fixing the washer and all the while the dog is looking for cuddles and the parrot never stops spouting a stream of abuse at the poor repairman. Finally the repairman can take no more, he looks over at the parrot and says " SHUT UP will you"
The parrot stops talking, looks in amazement at the man, looks over at the dog and says "get him Adolf" _________________ Too young to quit. Too old to change. - Brian Setzer |
