Well now if I ever live to be an old man
I'm gonna sail down to Martinique
I'm gonna buy me a sweat-stained Bogart suit
And an African parakeet
And then I'll sit him on my shoulder
And open up my trusty old mind
I gonna teach him how to cuss, teach him how to fuss
And pull the cork out of a bottle of wine

Even my spoon clanking around the cereal bowl in the morning.

My parent's bird would tease the dog by asking if she wanted to go outside.

Also did a Tarzan yell, laughed if you laughed, and some other things I have forgotten. That bird hated me.

That's just downright cruel(asking the dog if it wants to go for a walk). I swear they tease you and do crazy stuff they know aggravates the heck outta ya. I taught our Grey to do a mean "hooaah" from Scent Of A Woman.

Default In Australia...

This dude had all these Lorikeets, Kookaburras, Cockatoos, and more just showing up on his deck whenever he put the food out. It was crazy, I couldn't believe how tame they were!

Default I think my favorite is the Military Macaw...

If you painted roundels on their wings they would look like Spitfires in flight.

Many years ago two of our friends owned and operated a Greenware factory and made these,I was so impressed with them when only one was done they finished them and gave them to me !
They are now 48 years old and sit up high on a fireplace shelf at my daughters house.

Yup. Mine would do the beeping of the microwave and answer the phone when it rang ("Hello"). It would also call our cats (Here kitty kitty).

Sometimes, she'd slide down her cage (had perch on top she could use when not locked up), walk across the floor to one of cats and either nibble on their ears or tail. She never bit them or me but wouldn't tolerate my wife

You just reminded me. My parent's bird was a lobby bird at the vet clinic and when they first got the bird, every time the phone rang it would say Hello followed by the clinic name. That trait went away after a year or so.
