Three sons left home,went out on their own and prospered. They
discussed the gifts they were able to give their elderly mother.
The first son said: "I built a big house for our mother" The second
son said: I sent Mom a mercedes with a driver." The
third son said:"you remenber how our mother enjoys reading the bible.Now she can't see very well.So I sent her a remarkable parrot that recites the entire Bible. The Elders at the church
spent twelve years to teach him. Mama just has to name the chapter and the verse and the parrot recites its"
Soon thereafter, their mother sent out her letters of thanks.
"William",She wrote," the house you built is so huge. I live in only one room,but I have to clean the whole house." Arnorld, She said,
I'm too old to
travel. I stay most of the time at home so I rarely use the
mercedes. That driver is so rude, he is a pain"......But David,
"she said," the chicken was delicious.
I don't get it at all! Can you explain it to me?

the house was too big, the driver and car were useless, but she was kinda blind so she ate the parrot thinking it was a chicken even though the guy spent all kinds of money on it, and it was a rare bird that went through 12 yrs of schooling

You don't get it? .... She ate a bird ~ obviously the one the third son gave her ~ which was really a parrot ~ in other words, she ate the parrot thinking it was a chicken.

It was funny cause the parrot David sent to her for the present, well she thought it was a chicken so she killed it and cooked it and ate it, thats why she said it was sooo delicious. Simple as that!

She didn't realise she wasn't supposed to eat the bird. The first 2 sons' gifts were useless, but everyone loves roast chicken!!!

The third son sent her, like, this amazing, remarkable, one of a kind bird that people devoted years to training and she cooked and ate it. She's not only ungrateful but stupid as well.
