I saw these on another board and thought we could all use a good laugh!

For the Slaves to Parrots
1. Be nice to parrots
2. Don't make parrots wait for anything they request, this only makes them mad.
3. Don't interrupt a parrots schedule with your own, this also makes them mad.
4. Give parrots everything they ask for in an expedient manner. If you don't, yep, they get mad.
5. Never frustrate a parrots in any way. You guessed it, they get mad.
6. Only give parrots delicious, nutritious food. Yeah, yeah the mad thing again.
7. Give parrots lots of expensive toys to tear up or reject. Blah, blah, blah – mad.
8. Never punish or attempt to punish a parrot for pooping on the carpet, this makes them extraordinarily mad.
9. Don't inhibit a parrots insanely loud vocalization. This will frustrate them and (do I need to tell you this again?) they get mad.
10. Obey all rules – if you don't ... well you got it THEY GET MAD
From the Parrot:
11. If you like it, it's mine.
12. If you are reaching for something, it's mine.
13. If it's in my beak, it's mine.
14. If I can take it from you, it's mine.
15. If I had it a little while ago, it's mine.
16. If it's mine, it must never appear to be yours.
17. If I'm chewing something, all the pieces and everything they're on are mine.
18. If you're eating something in front of me, it's mine.
19. If I saw it first, it's mine.
20. If you have something and you put it down, it automatically becomes mine.

Michelle, I recently saw part of that and it gave the author's name. I can't remember if it is copyrighted, but one should always give the author credit. And, for Uncle's sake, don't copy and paste from another board without permission. JMHO

i didn't know who the author was or i certainly would. I think you're right as well and if i know the author i give credit where do. I wouldn't want someone taking my work and saying they did it.

I would like to find the author and get permission to put this in our book.
