Default Lesson Learned?

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 t he 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. 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?"
