The Burglar

There once was a burglar who staked out a nice home in an upscale neighborhood. When the family went on vacation, the burglar decided to make his move.

That night he quietly broke into the house and proceeded to look around. He took out his small flashlight and was walking around the family room when he heard a small voice say, "Jesus is watching you!"

Slightly alarmed, the burglar asked, "Who's there?" The voice said again, "Jesus is watching you!" The burglar whipped around in the direction of the voice and came face-to-face with a parrot.

Relieved, the burglar said, "Whew! it's just YOU. What's your name, bird?" the parrot replied, "Clarence." The burglar said, "Clarence! What fool in his right mind would name his parrot Clarence!!"

The parrot looked him in the eyes and said, "The same fool who named his pitbull Jesus!"
