[Merry christmas...HO HO HO]

A ladie goes into a pet shop to by a christmas gift for her husband.  The
salesmen comes upto her and says "what can I do for you?".  The lady said
"I am looking for a special gift for my husband."  The salesmen replied
"I have a very special parrot, it will cost you ten thousand bucks."  The
lady said in an amazement "what is so special about the parrot that makes
worth so much ?"  The salesmen says, "it is a singing parrot that sings
christmas carrolls.  If you lit a candle and put it under the parrot's left
foot, the parrot will sing Jingle Bell, and if you put the candle under the
right foot, the parrot will sing White Christmas."  So the lady lites up a
candle and placed it under the parrot's left foot.  Sure enough the parrot
started singing "Jingle Bells Jingle Bells jingle all the way ...."  The lady
was amazed.  Then she placed the candle under the parrot's right foot. The
parrot started to sing "I'm dreaming of a white christmas ...."
The lady decides to buy the parrot and takes it home.  That evening, when her
husband came in, she introduced him to the parrot.  They placed the candle
under the parrot's left foot... nothing happened.  Then the lady remembered
that the candle has to be lit.  So they lit up the candle.
"jingle bells jingle bells jingle all the way....."
The husband was amazed.  Then the candle was moved to parrot's right foot.
"I'm dreaming of a white christmas...."
The husband was very excited about this amazing parrot.  Then he thought,
"What would happen if the candle was in the middle (between the two feet) ?
Which song would the parrot sing ?"  So they went on to place the candle
in the middle of the left and right feet, and much to thier surprise, the
parrot started singing
