There’s an old English joke about a magician and a parrot on a cruise ship. Every time the magician does a trick, the parrot spoils it. “It’s up his sleeve.“ “There’s a fake compartment in the hat.” And then the ship’s boiler blows up. And the magician and the parrot are floating on a piece of wreckage on the open ocean for three days. The parrot is just looking at the magician, head cocked, one eye. Finally the parrot says, “OK, I give up… What did you do with the boat? “
