the bird Mr. Spade

A magician got his big break on a cruse line. He was on a great vacation cruse and only had to work two hours a day. There was a fly in the ointment though, One of the other acts had a parrot and it kept giving away all his secrets. Aawwaarrkk, it's up his sleeve; etc.


One night the ship hit an iceberg and sank. The magician was able to pull himself out of the freezing water and onto a door still attached to a huge frame. As the waves surged beneath him the door would open partially and then slam down violently, Just when he thought it couldn't get any worse the parrot flew down and landed on the far end of his improvised raft. Aawwaarrkk, said the parrot sticking it's head under the door and then pulling back when it slammed down. A few times the magician even tried to push the door down faster as the parrot began to look like a fine meal.


Aawwaarrkk, said the parrot, I give up, where'd you put the boat?
