Parrot Attitude Adjustment

> > A young 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 bird's mouth
> > was rude, obnoxious and laced with profanity. John
> > tried and tried to change
> > the bird's attitude by consistently saying only
> > polite words, playing soft
> > music and anything else he could think of to
> > "clean up" the bird's
> > 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
> > ruder. 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'd hurt the parrot, John
> > quickly opened the door to
> > the freezer. The parrot calmly stepped out onto
> > John's outstretched arms and
> > said,
> > "I believe I may have offended you with my rude
> > language and actions. I'm
> > sincerely remorseful for my inappropriate
> > transgressions and I fully intend
> > to do everything I can to correct my rude and
> > unforgivable behavior."
> > John was stunned at the change in the bird's
