A man is sleeping in bed when his telephone suddenly rings.
“Hello, Senor Rod? This is Ernesto, the caretaker at your country house.â€
“Ah yes, Ernesto. What can I do for you? Is there a problem?â€
“Um, I am just calling to advise you, Senor Rod, that your parrot, he is dead.â€
“My parrot? Dead? The one that won the international competition?â€
“Si, Senor, that's the one.â€
“Damn! That's a pity! I spent a small fortune on that bird. What did he die from?â€
“From eating the rotten meat, Senor Rod.â€
“Rotten meat? Who the hell fed him rotten meat?â€
“Nobody, Senor. He ate the meat of the dead horse.â€
“Dead horse? What dead horse?â€
“The thoroughbred, Senor Rod.â€
â€My prize thoroughbred is dead?â€
â€Yes, Senor Rod, he died from all that work pulling the water cart.â€
“Are you insane? What water cart?â€
“The one we used to put out the fire, Senor.â€
“Good Lord!! What fire are you talking about, man?!â€
“The one at your house, Senor! A candle fell and the curtains caught on fire.â€
“What the hell?†Are you saying that my mansion is destroyed because of a candle?â€
“Yes, Senor Rod.â€
“But there's electricity at the house! What was the candle for?â€
“For the funeral, Senor Rod.â€
“WHAT BLOODY FUNERAL?â€
“Your wife's, Senor Rod. She showed up very late one night and I thought she was a thief, so I hit her with your new TaylorMade Super Quad 460 golf club.â€
“Ernesto, if you broke that driver, you're in serious trouble!â€
