Funny Story ......
A magician was working on a cruise ship in the Caribbean. The
audience would be different each week, so the magician allowed
himself to do the same tricks over and over again.
There was only one problem: 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 in the middle of
the show:
"Look, it's not the same hat."
"Look, he is hiding the flowers under the table."
"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 had an accident and sank. The magician found
himself adrift on a piece of wood in the middle of the ocean with
the parrot, of course.
They stared at each other with hate, but did not utter a word.
This went on for a day, then another, and another.
After a week the parrot said:
"OK, I give up. Where is the boat ?"
