The Cregeen

[mollag]

During a lull at a Government Department Xmas dinner, a junior civil servant leaned over to chat with his senior, .
"The staff bought  Mr Cregeen a parrot for his Christmas. That bird is so clever, Graham has already taught him to say over two hundred words!"
“Very impressive," said the Senior , "but, you do realize he just speaks the words.
He doesn't really understand what they all mean.”
"Oh, I know", replied the junior, “but then again, neither does the parrot."
