Today's ghastly groaner
Late one night a burglar broke into a house and while he was sneaking around he heard a voice say: “Jesús is watching you.”
He looked around and saw nothing. He kept on creeping and again heard: “Jesús is watching you.”
In a dark corner, he saw a cage with a parrot inside.
The burglar asked the parrot, “Was it you who said Jesús is watching me?”
The parrot replied, “Yes.”
Relieved, the burglar asked, “What is your name?”
The parrot said, “Clarence.”
The burglar said, “Clarence is a stupid name for a parrot. What idiot named you that?”
The parrot answered: “The same idiot that named the rottweiler Jesús.”
