I was driving on the highway this morning, and I happened to glance at the license plate frame in front of me.
"Happiness is.....biting my parrot back."
Well, I'll be darned.
Who knew that that's what happiness is.
After all this time, I finally have found the secret!
Wait...
What if I don't have a parrot back?
What if I did have a parrot back, but couldn't reach it to bite it.
*sigh*
I don't know what to do now.
Go to the craft store and buy feathers?
Would biting into a feather pillow help?
Maybe I should just go to the pet store, ask to hold a parrot, wait for it to bite me, then bite it back!
I'd probably just have to do a little dance right in the pet store, because I'd be so happy.
All these years, I've been looking in the wrong places for happiness.
It's just been sitting in a smelly pet store pooping on newspaper.

hey thanks for cluing us in on just what it takes to be happy. I think biting into a feather pillow has to do with something else. ;)
I suddenly understand why Parrots are so expensive now. I thought it was because they were exotic birds, but it must be because Happiness doesn't come free...
No wonder the tropics is such a popular vacation spot!
I want to say that Heffalump stole my comment 'cause hers is so dang funny, but alas, mine's boring by comparison so I'm not going to make it now.
You? Crack me up.
Now, how would you know if you had a parrot back? Would you be sprouting feathers?
Maybe that's why people struggle to find true happiness, because their necks aren't long enough.
That's why we have to help and serve one another....biting each other's backs will bring happiness after all!
Can you cook the parrot first?
How horrible was that? :)
I think Heffalump's comment was the best ever! I had a smart-alecy comment all ready to go, but then I read that, and poof it was gone. I laughed it right out of my head.
I love this blog-post!
Heffalump wins.
The way I read it is: the Parrot bites you, then you bite it back and suddenly: HAPPINESS!
WOW. It blows my mind.
Happiness was all about a bird all this time.
No wonder pirates are so happy and singing all the time.
I want my parrot back parrot back parrot back parrot back...
What about a stuffed bird? Would that be true happiness? Pondering...
hahahaha!!
And here I thought I was reading it weird ;)
See? That shows you I really don't know nothing.
Alas, I'm just not witty enough for this post...but at least I commented.
I think I needs to get me a parrot.
Do you think the feathers would get stuck in your teeth?
dang, I got nothin
What? It's not biting my kid's back? Come on a little baby chub nibble? I doubt that feathery flea infested bird can beat that.
I know I feel something unique when I do something with a bird...on the freeway...to cars that cut me off...
hump - always thought it was road rage - maybe that signal is really happiness! Anyway, that's all I know about birds and happiness.
Chili's... parrot back ribs...

lurking...nothing to say. Brilliant blog...
ok
bye
Very clever post two thumps up. Too bad I can't think of a clever comment.
And they say money can't buy happiness. Sheesh. Don't they know you have to use money to buy a parrot back?
Funny post. I love your sense of humor.
Is it biting the parrot, biting a back or the feathers coming in contact with the mouth that brings happiness? Because last night I dreamed I ate a large marshmallow....
A lot of my education comes from what I observe while driving. Last year I saw Jesus driving north on I-5. She was driving an old Japanese import with signs posted all over her car windows and words painted on the sides of the car saying things like, "I died for you" and "I am God and you must worship me" and "Repent or I will destroy you".
It's hard to be funny with this story and not sound blasphemous. I'm chickening out, so it ends here.
Hilarious! Thanks for my morning laugh :-)
Wonder if it's like a hump back, only shorter and softer?
Funny post, funny comments! Thanks for the laughs!!! :D
ROFL, man, no wonder I didn't have true happiness. I didn't have a parrot! I can't afford a parrot. Do you think a parakeet would work?
Holy-carp!!! The one and only Carrot Jello commented on my blog! I was so excited that I almost cried!
Carrot! I worked on the song a little...It will never be as good as you could do..but swing on over to the Copa Cabana and check it out!
You made my day...(and my sister is going to be so jealous because she is actually the one who found you first!)
So that explains why so many Barzilians [in the Amazon region] were just so plain happy.
All this time I thought their smiles were a result of passing gas after eating so many beans and rice.
oh man Carrot. Everytime I read this post it makes me laugh more and I get more confused.
BTW, today I have read from 2 people who have been super excited that you visited/commented on their blogs.
Note to self: get Carrot autograph next time I see her.
Sell on Ebay.
Do parrots have fleas? 'cause if they do, I don't know about that being the route to true happiness. I mean, I just learned about the life cycle of a tapeworm, and how you catch tapeworm by eating a flea, and...well, if I bit a parrot and swallowed a flea and caught a tapeworm, I don't see how that would make me happy.
*scratches head*
Yet, there is something appealing about having a mouthful of feathers. There may be some joy in that.
HAHA...I shouldn't read your blog at work. I laugh out loud and people think I am a crazy.
I guess I'm the only one who doesn't get it *looks around sheepishly* hehehe
Are parrot backs anything like buffalo wings? Cuz those are kind of skimpy on the meat and I don't like them so much.
