ticca 0 #1 July 30, 2005 I was reading this on the way home from a particularly bad day at work, and it made me laugh. I need to get me one of these Macaws. It would mean I pretty much could let the parrot do the talking to my mostly pesky co-workers, leaving me free to actually get some work done. The donkey, however, can stay the hell where it is. ------------ ANIMAL ACTS A parrot has been put into isolation and made to listen to respectable BBC Radio 4 after swearing repeatedly at distingished vistors, Anananova reports. Barney, a five year old Macaw, turned the air blue when a civic party toured an animal sanctury at Nuneaton, Warwickshire. He told the mayor to "f**k off" before turning to a woman vicar and saying "you can f**k off, too", the website quoted the Gaurdian as reporting. The sancturay's owner, Geoff Grewcock, said: "to their credit, the didn't take offence and laughed it off; and luckily, so did two policemen who were told "and you can f**k off too, wankers".' Mr Grucock said the Radio 4 treatment "wasn't really working yet, but he is a very funny parrot with a lot of character, and he does say "thank you" whenever he does get a treat.' In Croatia, a randy donkey has been banished to a deserted island after harassing female donkeys in a national park. The donkey, Aga, used to badger his favourite mares for sex as often as six times a day. Park officials acted after tourists complained that whenever they visted the park all the donkey seemed to be doing was trying to have sex. Park officials say the rest of the herd seems happier and healthier since Aga has been shipped off to the deserted island of Dugi Otok. -------------- Ha ha ha ha. Ha.

aprilcat 0 #2 July 30, 2005 LMAO...tag this onto the thread: Are You An Ass! I don't know if the donkey should stay alone. I think he should be left on an island with BIGGER male donkeys and see how he likes it.~~April Camelot II, the Electric Boogaloo! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RastaRicanAir 0 #3 July 30, 2005 Dropzones should have talking parrots as mascots. Oh, imagine the hilarity that would ensue! My EX had a boss who I didn't like because he was always hitting on her. (Which is weird in itself because he was gay, but kidding himself that he was bisexual.) Anyway, he had her apt. sitting for him for a week, during which time I taught his parrot to say "You Putz!" But the damned bird never repeated it. .....Until the guy got home.OrFunV/LocoBoca Rodriguez/Sonic Grieco/Muff Brother #4411 -"and ladies....messin with Robbie is venturing into territory you cant even imagine!-cuz Robbie is Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
