My Buddy Dave

[SilverFox]

The other day I went over to my buddy Dave's place and when I got there Dave looked like hell, his arm was bandaged, he had stitches in his hands his legs, his arms where all scratch up, he looked like he had been in a heck of a battle and wasn't on the good end of the outcome.

Dave, what the hell happened to you.

You wouldn't believe the day I had yesterday when I was out on a service call for this guys hot water tank. I got the call, and the guy says he won't be home but the basement is open go ahead in and take care of what you need to.

I show up to the guys house head on down to the basement and there is the biggest meanest dog you have ever seen sitting there. Freakin thing is all teeth and eyeballs, but he just watches me carefully so I move over to the Hot Water tank and get to work keeping one eye on that man eater.

As I am working on the tank I hear someone say "Is that all you can do?" I look around and in a cage by a workbench is a parrot, I kinda laugh under my breath and take a check on the dog and get back to work.

About 10 minutes later the parrot speaks up again "Is that all you can do?" Again I ignore it and go about replacing the thermostat on the tank.

I putting the thing back together and sure enough the parrot says "Is that all you can do?" the bird is kind of annoying but not near as threatening as that dog so I start putting away my tools and cleaning up.

As I am walking across the basement to the stairs keeping a watchful eye on that dog the parrot fires it up again "Is that all you can do?" Without thinking I look back over my shoulder at the parrot and say "Is that all you can say?"

The parrot swings its head my way and says "SICK 'EM"
