Parrot joke

[Christopha]

Upon retirement an old fellow had realized that he had poured himself into his work his entire life and never married. After spending a few weeks at home alone he decided that he needed some companionship and headed for the pet store. After looking around the store he thought that he would like to purchase a bird. He began looking at the selection available and noticed that one bird sold for $100 and the bird in the next cage was priced at $10000. He looked and looked and studied the two birds, but he could not tell the difference, so he called over the store owner and asked him to explain. The owner said that the $10000 bird was the perfect bird and that the $100 bird was just the average everyday bird. But I still don't see the difference said the old man. The owner explained that the $100 bird had a small hump on his beak and that made him just average. Your telling me that if that $100 dollar bird didn't have that tiny little hump in his beak he would be worth $10000. Well says the owner, he might not be worth $10000 but he would be worth quite a bit more. With much delight the old man says I'll take him, you see I have been a master machinist my whole life and have worked with tools and my hands since I was a young boy, I think that I can file that hump off the birds beak and make some extra money. You might be able to do that says the owner, but I must warn you that there is a membrane in the birds beak and you file to deeply you will kill the bird. No problem says the old man with great confidence, I have worked with my hands and tools for over 50 years. About a weak later the old man was back in the pet store and the owner asks how things went with the bird. He died said the old man. The owner says I warned you that you could file to deeply and that would kill the bird. Oh, that's not what happened replied the old man. Well what happened then? I crushed his head in the vise.

Am I mistaken or did you once say that you didn't read long posts without decent paragraphing ?
