Parrot Makes for a Spiritual Meal

[superjoint]

Three sons left home, went on their own, and prospered. Getting back together, they discussed the gifts they were able to give their elderly mother. The first said, "I built a big house for our mother." The second said, "I send her a Mercedes with a driver." The third smiled and said, "I've got you both beat. You remember how mom enjoys reading the Bible? And you know she can't see very well. So I sent her a remarkable parrot that recites the entire Bible. It took elders in the church 12 years to teach him. He's one of a kind. Mom just has to name the chapter and verse, and the parrot recites it."

Soon after, Mom sent letters of thanks: "Milton," she wrote to one son, "The house you built is too big. I live in only one room, but I have to clean the whole house." "Gerald," she wrote to the second, "I am too old to travel. I stay most of the time at home, so I rarely use the Mercedes. And the driver is so rude!" "Dearest Donald," she wrote to her third son, "you have the good sense to know what your mother likes. The chicken was delicious."
