Mrs. Peterson phoned the repairman because her dishwasher
quit working.
He couldn't accommodate her with an
"after-hours" appointment and since she had to go
to work, she told him, "I'll leave the key under
the mat. Fix the dish washer, leave the bill on the counter,
and I'll mail you a check. By the way, I have a large
rottweiler inside named Killer; he won't bother you. I
also have a parrot, and whatever you do, do not talk to the
bird!"
Well, sure enough the dog, Killer, totally ignored the
repairman, but the whole time he was there, the parrot
cursed, yelled, screamed, and about drove him nuts.
As he was ready to leave, he couldn't resist saying,
"You stupid bird, why don't you shut up!" To
which the bird replied, "Killer, get him!"
Kevin,
Just a little something to get your day off to a good start. Thanks for stopping in.
I bet ya he was glad he had his hand on the door. If not killer had himself a mid-morning snack.
Mel,
We have three down the street that scare everybody that walks past their house. My little pug doesn't even pay them any attention. Go figure.
Don,
We must learn to follow directions. Because there is usually a reason we are told something.;-)

I love this. Kind of poetic justice in a weird kind of way. Is the dishwasher fixed.

Ann,
I have found over the years that I have had those little moments when I have a lapse in memory. But you are right we do need to remember to follow directions.
Allen,
I was thinking that the dishwasher was completed and if it wasn't it should have been.
Good morning Raine,
I am glad that I was able to add a smile to your face and life. I hope that all is well with you and you are on track for the year. BTW, keep smiling.
Very cute animal humor! I love animals, but sometimes the large birds can be better "watch dogs" than the dogs!
