Like Chicken - joke

[TBB]

 

One evening, four brothers chatted after dinner together.

 

They discussed the 95th birthday gifts that they had been able to give their elderly mother who had moved to Florida.

 

The first said, "You know I had that big house built for Mama."

 

The second said, "And I built her a large theater next to the house."

 

The third said, "And I had my Mercedes dealer deliver her a brand new SL600."

 

The fourth said, "You know how Mama used to love reading the Bible and now she can't anymore because of her bad eyesight?

WelI, I met this preacher who told me about a parrot who could recite the entire Bible. It took ten preachers almost 8 years to teach him.

I had to pledge to contribute $50,000 a year for five years to the church, but it was worth it. Mama only has to name the chapter and verse, and the parrot will recite it."

 

The other brothers were really impressed.

 

After her birthday celebrations, Mama sent out her "Thank You" notes.

 

She wrote:

 

Milton, the house you built is huge. I live in only a couple of rooms, but I have to clean the whole house. Thanks anyway."

 

"Marvin, I am too old to travel. I stay home; I have my groceries delivered, so I never use the Mercedes, But the thought was good. Thanks."

 

"Michael, you gave me an expensive theater with Dolby sound and it can hold 50 people, but all of my friends are dead, I've lost my hearing, and I'm nearly blind. I'll never use it. Thank you for the gesture just the same."

 

"Dearest Melvin, you were the only son to have the good sense to give a little thought to your gift. The chicken was delicious. Thank you so much."

 

Love, Mama
