A certain lady who lived on Park Avenue loved birds and her husband was rich enough to indulge her every whim. For a birthday present he found her a parrot that spoke eleven languages and that cost him exactly $100 for each language. When he got home, he said, "What d'ya think of that wonderful bird I sent you?

"It was elegant," she answered. "It's in the oven right now."

The husband's face turned purple. "In the oven? he shouted. "Why, that bird could speak eleven languages."

The wife asked, "Then why didn't it say something?"

Didn't you see the commercials? The parrots will be squawking to your henchlings all the things you've been saying about them behind their backs.

Unloading armed and loaded parrots can be very dangerous.
If it's just guns with cartridges, that's pretty easy.
But if it's stuff like hand grenades or mines that's an entirely different kettle of fish.
