VILLE PLATTE, La. - A Louisiana woman has pleaded guilty to selling two children for a cockatoo and $175 in what her attorney called an attempt to do a good thing that went wrong.-APReally? I would rather have to take care of 5 children than to care for a god damn parrot. Those things never shut up, and I really don't see the point in owning one. It's a bird. It's supposed to be flying around, not in the corner in the living room in a cage while you wave crackers in front of its face trying to teach it to talk. Leave the parrot-owning to pirates.
But maybe I'm just bitter from my last bird experience. When I lived in Providence, Rhode Island, two ridiculous human beings sold a headless parakeet named Petey to the blind kid in 4C. They even sweetened the deal by throwing in a sack a marbles and a few baseball cards.
