His cell phone rang and the caller I.D. let him know that the call is from home.
With some concern, he took the call.
"Hello, Senor David? This is Ernesto the caretaker at your country house."
"Ah yes, Ernesto. What can I do for you? Is there a problem?"
"Um, I am just calling to advise you, Senor, that your parrot died.
"My parrot is dead? The one that won the International competition?"
"Si, Senor, that's the one."
"Damn! That's a pity! I spent a small fortune on that bird. What did he die from?"
"From eating rotten meat, Senor"
"Rotten meat? Who the hell fed him rotten meat?"
"Nobody, Senor. He ate the meat of the dead horse."
"Dead horse? What dead horse?"
"The thoroughbred, Senor."
"My prize thoroughbred is dead?"
"Yes Senor, he died from all that work pulling the water cart."
"Are you insane? What water cart?"
"The one we used to put out the fire, Senor"
"Good Lord! What fire are you talking about, man?"
"The one at your house, Senor! A candle fell and the curtains caught
on fire."
"What the hell??....Are you saying that my mansion is destroyed because of a candle??!!!
"Yes Senor David."
"But there's electricity at the house!!! What was the candle for?"
"For the funeral, Senor."
" WHAT BLOODY FUNERAL?!"
"Your wife's, Senor...She showed up one night out of the blue and
I thought she was a thief, so I hit her with your new Tiger Woods Nike
Driver."
SILENCE................... LONG SILENCE...............
"Ernesto, if you broke that driver, you're in deep shit!"
