> 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 dollars".
>
> "Why, does the parrot cost so much" asks the first
man. The owner says "Well the parrot knows how to use a
computer".
>
> The man then asks about the next parrot to be told that this
one costs $1,000 dollars because it can do everything the other
parrot can do plus it knows how to use the UNIX operating system.
>
> Naturally, the increasingly startled man asks about the
third parrot to be told that it costs $2,000 dollars. Needless to
say this begs the question "What can it do?"
>
> To which the owner replies "to be honest I have never
seen it do a thing...
> but the other two call him boss!".
