Bad Bird?            

David received a parrot for his birthday.  The parrot was fully grown
with a
bad attitude and worse vocabulary.  Every other word was an expletive.
Those
that weren't expletives, were to say the least, rude.  

David tried hard to change the bird's attitude and was constantly saying
polite words, playing soft music, anything he could think of to try and
set a
good  example...

Nothing worked. He yelled at the bird and the bird yelled back. He shook
the
bird and the bird just got more angry and more rude. Finally, in a moment
of
desperation, David put the parrot in the freezer.

For a few moments he heard the bird squawk and kick and scream - then
suddenly, there was quiet.  Not a sound for half a minute.

David was frightened that he might have hurt the bird and quickly opened
the
freezer door.  The parrot calmly stepped out onto David's extended arm
and
said, "I believe I may have offended you with my rude language and
actions.  I
will endeavor at once to correct my behavior.  I really am truly sorry
and beg
your forgiveness."

David was astonished at the bird's change in attitude and was about to
ask
what had made such a dramatic change when the parrot continued,

"May I ask what the chicken did?"
