A magician was working on a cruise ship in the Caribbean. The audience would be different each week, so the magician id the same tricks over and over again. The captain's parrot saw the shows each week and began to understand how the magician did every trick. Once he understood he started shouting: "Look, it's not the same hat"or "Hey, why are all the cards the Ace of Spades ?" The magician was furious but couldn't do anything; it was, after all, the captain's parrot.
One day the ship sank. The magician found himself on a piece of wood in the ocean with the parrot. They stared at each other with hate, but did not utter a word. After a week the parrot said: "OK, I give up. Where's the boat?" Pilot to tower . . . pilot to tower . . . I am 300 miles from land . . . 600 feet over water . . . and running out of fuel . . please instruct! Tower to pilot . . repeat after me: "Our Father, which art in heaven . . ."
