>Fix the dishwasher, leave the bill on the counter, and I'll mail

>Oh, by the way don't worry about my bulldog.
>He won't bother you.

>But, whatever you do, do NOT, under ANY circumstances,
>talk to my parrot!"
>
>"I REPEAT, DO NOT TALK TO MY PARROT!!!"

>When the repairman arrived at Wanda's apartment the following
>day, he discovered the biggest, meanest looking bulldog he has
>ever seen. But, just as she had said, the dog just lay there on
>the carpet watching the repairman go about his work.
>
>The parrot, however, drove him nuts the whole time with his
>incessant yelling, cursing and name calling.
>
>Finally the repairman couldn't contain himself any longer and
>yelled,
>
>"Shut up, you stupid ugly bird!" To which the parrot replied,

>"Get him, Spike!"
