From: A.N.
A magician worked on a cruise ship. The audience was different every week, so
the magician did the same tricks over and over and over again every week.
One problem. The Captain's parrot saw the show every week and began to
figure out how the tricks were done.
Once he understood, he started shouting in the middle of each show. "Look he's 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.
Then during a fierce storm, the ship sank. The magician found himself on
a piece of wood in the middle of the sea with, as fate would have it, the
parrot.
They stared at each other with hatred but did not utter a word.....
This went on for a day, then another and another......
Finally on the fourth day, the parrot could hold back no longer.
"Ok........ I give up..... Where's the bleeping ship?
