A Little Joy

A Hasidic man, with a long beard, payis (earlocks), a kaftan (a long black coat), and shtreiml 

(the traditional fur hat worn by Chassidic Jews), walks into a bar with a multi-colored parrot 

on his shoulder. The bartender says: "Where'd you get that?" The parrot  replies: "Brooklyn. 

There's thousands of them."

Of course, now in the 21 st century we must ask: are we better or worse for it?
