(Reference: Just Joking by Sandra Heyer)

     A rich woman was thinking about her mother. It was her mother's birthday, and she wanted to send her mother a nice birthday present.

     The woman went to a pet shop. She saw a beautiful bird. The bird could sing, and it could speak seven languages. It cost $50,000. The woman bought the bird and sent it to her mother.

     The next day, the woman called her mother on the telephone. "Mama," asked the woman, "How do you like the bird?"

     "I'm eating it right now," her mother said. "It's delicious."
