It did once tell my father to drop dead and it called the cat an SOB. No one knew how old it was and it would say things once and then never again. My father became a veterinarian and once had care of a parrot in his clinic that would begin to swear loudly whenever the phone rang. I don't know what it said, being then very young and forbidden to go near the bird. I can easily believe the story of this parrot's habits and vocabulary!dsgallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01974220651532381735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7493712084606110971.post-77000979013282529772019-11-11T18:26:35.358-08:002019-11-11T18:26:35.358-08:00I noticed that the Brooklyn newspaper 'dashed&...I noticed that the Brooklyn newspaper 'dashed' the offending word the parrot used, while the New Jersey journal did not hide it at all.
