- *** slight drift on ***
- (I based this on something I heard on "THHGTTG")
-
- Don't you hate salespeople who just barge into your house?
- The type who won't leave unless you threaten to call the police?
-
- I've got a great way of dealing with them.
-
- One of the first things they notice is my (fairly large) Grey Parrot.
- Visitors ask if the parrot is safe, and I reply, yes she is.
-
- So they stick their fingers in her cage, and she gives them a pretty
- good bite.
-
- I then tell them that the parrot is perfectly safe - its people who
- stick their fingers in her cage who are in danger.

- Oh yes, :-) :-) :-)
