Praying parrots
My mother in law just sent me this one.
A woman went to her priest one day and told him, 'Father, I have a problem. I have just bought two talking parrots, but I'm rather embarrassed about what they say.'
'What do they say?' the priest asked.
'Well, Father, I'm afraid they say .... ahem... They say, "Hi, we're hookers! Do you want to have some fun?"'
'That's obscene!' the priest exclaimed, 'but I might be able to help. I also have two talking parrots, but I have taught them to pray and read the Bible. You should bring your two parrots over to my house, and we'll put them in the cage with Francis and Peter. Then my parrots can teach your parrots to pray and worship, and your parrots are sure to stop saying... That phrase... In no time.'
So the next day, she took her parrots to the priest's house, where sure enough his two parrots were inside their cage holding rosary beads in their claws and praying. Impressed, she walked over and put her parrots in with them.
And sure enough, after a few minutes, her parrots cried out in unison: 'Hi, we're hookers! Do you want to have some fun?'
There was stunned silence, then one of the priest's parrots looked over at his friend and said, 'Put the beads away, Frankie boy, our prayers have been answered!'
