tunaplanet 0 #1 January 28, 2004 BETSY AND PATSY "We were born on the same day of the same year," said Betsy. "And we have the same mother and father," said Patsy. "But we're not twins," said Betsy. Can you explain this? THE PURPLE PARROT "I guarantee," said the salesman in the pet shop, "that this purple parrot will repeat every word it hears." The customer bought the bird and took it home. The parrot did not repeat one word for over a week. The disgruntled customer returned the parrot angry. Nevertheless, what the salesman said was true and he did not lie. How is this true?
