True parrot story. My friend, Regina told me that when she was five they inherited a 70 year old parrot from a great uncle who died. The bird was so smart that it only had to hear a new word once and it would gleefully repeat it for a week or two getting it locked in. So Regina had an attic bedroom that was double large so the parrot stayed in her room. One day when her mom ran to the store for a few minutes to get milk, Regina was moving a whole stack of books and dropped them on her foot and out popped some "explicative deleted". So the parrot seized on these new words and was shouting them at he top of his lungs when her mother came back in the door with the milk.
"Regina! Where did that bird hear that?!"
"Oh he must have herd it on television," she replied.
The Parrot, "Regina Lie! Regina Lie! Regina Lie!"

Old man comes into a restaurant, sits at his usual table, and orders the usual — matzoh ball soup.
The waiter sets it down in front of him, and stands back to watch him enjoy it. But the man just sits there.
“Is there something wrong?” the waiter asks.
“I can’t eat this soup,” the man replies.
“Is it too hot?” the waiter asks. “No.” “Too cold?” “No.” “Too salty?” “No.”
The waiter calls for the maitre d’, and for the chef, and each goes through the same routine: “Too hot?” “Too cold?” “No, no no.”
Finally the chief, at his wits end, says, “Sir, I will taste the soup myself. Where is the spoon?”
Says the old man: “A-ha!”
