FOR ENTERTAINMENT ONLY:

There was this gentle poultryman who bought this lovely parrot. Unfortunately, it swore like a veteran of many wars. This parrot was bad, it could cuss for several minutes and never repeat itself ! The poor fellow eventually could not take it any longer and told the parrot to mend his way. This just set the parrot off on a particularly nasty reply. Our hero decided to teach the bird a lesson. He took the parrot and locked it in the cupboard. The parrot went crazy, clawing and scratching so much he had to be released for fear of excessive damage. The parrot immediately told his owner his new found feelings of hatred for the poor pet owner.

"Enough !" he shouted at the bird and threw the bird into the freezer half-filled with frozen whole chickens, closed the lid tightly, and the initial racket was deafening. But suddenly, it was in trouble.... no air ? cold ? repentant ? He rushed over and opened the lid. The parrot calmly hopped out of the freezer and onto the guy's arm. "Sorry to have been such a bother, Sir", he said. Our hero was speechless, staring at the obviously repentant bird.

"By the way, what did the chickens do ?"
