Three sons left home to make their fortunes and did very well. one day, the three competitive brothers got back together to discuss the gift that they were giving their elderly mother. The 1st said,I built a big house for Mom. The 2nd said, I got her a Mercedes with a driver. Ive got you both beat, said the 3rd.You know Mom enjoys the Bible, and you know she cant see very well. I sent her a brown parrot that can recite the entire Bible. It took twenty monks in a monastery twelve years to teach him. I had to pledge to contribute $100,000 a year for ten years for them to train him, but it is worth it. Soon thereafter, their mom sent out her letters of thanks. To the. 1st son, she wrote, Milton, the house you built is so huge. I live in only 1 room, but I have 2 clean the whole house. To the 2nd son, she wrote, Marty, I am too old to travel. I stay home all the time, so I never use the Mercedes. And the driver was rude! To the 3rd son, her message was softer: Dearest Melvin, you were the only son to have the good sense to know what your mother likes. The chicken was delicious!
