O/T joke: The burglar

[Guest guest]

A burglar broke into a house one night. He shined his flashlight

around looking for valuables, and when he picked up a VCR to

place in his sack, a strange, disembodied voice echoed from the

dark saying,

 

" Jesus is watching you. "

 

He nearly jumped out of his skin, clicked his flashlight out and

froze. When he heard nothing more after a bit, he shook his

head, promised himself a long vacation after his next big score,

then clicked the light back on and began searching for more

valuables.

 

Just as he pulled the stereo out so he could disconnect the wires,

clear as a bell he heard,

 

" Jesus is watching you. "

 

Freaked out, he shined his light around frantically, looking

for the source of the voice. Finally, in the corner of the room, his

flashlight beam came to rest on a parrot...

 

" Did you say that? " he hissed at the parrot.

 

" Yep, " the parrot confessed, then squawked, " I'm just trying to warn

you. "

 

 

The burglar relaxed. " Warn me, huh? Who the heck are you? "

 

" Moses, " replied the bird.

 

" Moses? " the burglar laughed. " What kind of people would name a parrot

Moses? "

 

The bird promptly answered, " Probably the same kind of people that would

name a 140 pound Rottweiler Jesus. "
