Jan, speaking of parrots

[Guest guest]

A man goes into a pet shop to buy a parrot. The shop owner points to

three identical looking parrots on a perch and says, "the parrot on

the left costs $5,000.00.""Why does the parrot cost so much?" asks

the man. The owner says, "Well the parrot knows how to use a

computer." The man then asks about the next parrot and is told that

this one costs $15,000 because it can do everything the other parrot

can do plus it knows how to use the UNIX operating system. Naturally,

the increasingly startled man asks about the third parrot to be told

that it costs $30,000. Needless to say this begs the question, "What

can it do?" To which the owner replies, "To be honest I have never

seen him do a thing, but the other two call him boss!"
