Late one night, a burglar
broke into a house
he thought was empty.
He tiptoed through the living room but
suddenly he froze in his tracks
when he heard a loud voice say:
„Jesus is watching you!“
Silence returned to the house, so the
burglar crept forward again.
„Jesus is watching you,“ the voice
boomed again.
The burglar stopped dead again. He was frightened.
Frantically, he
looked all around. In a dark corner, he spotted a
bird cage and in the cage
was a parrot.
He asked the parrot:
„Was that you who said Jesus is watching me?“
„Yes“, said the
parrot.
The burglar breathed a sigh of relief, and asked the
parrot: „What’s
your name?“
„Clarence,“ said the bird.
„That’s a dumb name for a parrot,“ sneered the burglar. „What idiot
named you Clarence?“
The parrot said, „The same idiot who
named the Rottweiller
Jesus.“
