"Ugly?"

A lady was walking down the street to work, and
she saw a parrot on a perch in front of a pet store.
The parrot said to her, "Hey lady, you are really
ugly." Well, as you can imagine, the lady is
furious! She stormed past the store to her work.

On the way home she saw the same parrot, and
it said to her, "Hey lady, you are really ugly." She
was incredibly ticked off now.

The next day the same parrot again said to her,
"WOW lady, you are still really ugly." The lady
was so ticked off that she went into the store and
said that she would sue the store and kill the bird
if the manager didn't take care of this problem.
The store manager apologized profusely and
promised he would make sure the parrot
didn't say it again.

When the lady walked past the store that day
after work, the parrot called to her, "Hey lady."
She stopped and said, "Yes?"

The bird paused, then said, "You know."

"Parrot at Auction"

An ugly old lady went to an auction sale. There
she was attracted to a parrot in a gilded cage.
The parrot was large, very healthy looking and
exquisitely colored. The old lady was so attracted
by the parrot's appearance that she couldn't help
but bid on it. She bid, determined to have the
parrot, but another bidder competed and drove
the price very high.

The old lady eventually bought the parrot. She
was at the cashier's desk and told the cashier
that she was so excited about the beautiful
appearance of the parrot that she had neglected
to ask if it could talk.

The parrot spoke up, "Who do you think was
bidding against you?"
