Buying a Parrot

A man goes into a pet shop to buy a parrot. The shop owner points to three identical looking parrots on a perch and says, “The parrot on the left costs $500.00.”

“Why does the parrot cost so much?” asks the man. The shop owner says, “Well, the parrot knows how to use a computer.”

The man then asks about the next parrot and is told that this one costs $1,000.00 because it can do everything the other parrot can do plus it knows physics and math.

The man asks about the third parrot and is told that it costs $2,000.00.

In turn, he asks, “What can it do for this price?”

The shop owner replies, “To be honest I have never seen it do a thing, but the other two call him Boss!!”
