Parrots

     We have two parrots, Pierino a yellow headed amazon, and Azul, an indian ring neck parrot. They both talk but Pierino has the most talent. When he is especially animated he invents his own language using spanish sounding words. 
     The tamale lady passes each day. Two days ago she stopped at the entrance of the hotel and yelled as always "S e ñ o r a",  hoping to get the attention of the maids. No answer. They were occupied. She hollered again 
"B u e n o s  D i a s". Pierino, hidden from her view, answered, "B u e n o s  
D i a s!"  "¿Quiere tamales?", the lady shouted. "N o" , answered Pierino. She left never knowing she was talking to the parrot.

 Pierino is the reason I call myself Don Peor. For a long time he would call out to me "Don Pierre". Then, after many repetitions Don Pierre metamophosed into Don Peor.
