So, I'm going to Colorado to visit my bro. I'm excited. I haven't been on a good drive in about a year and a half. Anyway. I'll be gone for a week. I might lurk, but don't expect to see me posting much for a while (For those who cared)

Drive safe, Boris. I'll be gone too, visiting relatives in Mississippi who don't have (or have limited access to) the internet.

Here's an old joke, but when somebody shared it with me today, I still laughed:

quote:
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. In desperation, John threw up his hands, 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 attitude. As he was about to ask the parrot what had made such a dramatic change in his behavior, when the bird continued,

"May I ask what the turkey did?"

Ic, that is one of my all time *favorite* jokes! [ROFL]

It always makes me laugh.

It ranks right up there with "That's a knick knack, Patty Wack, give the frog a loan." and "It says right here that it gives your hare a permanent wave."

Enjoy your vacation, Boris. Be safe.

Everyone have a happy thanksgiving! Remember: "Gorge yourselves, you mooches!"

[ROFL]

That was a good one.
What joke is jeniwren talking about? Was that the joke? [Dont Know]
