Detectives became suspicious when they noticed something unusual about this parrot. It had only one leg!
"So mam, why would you keep a bird with only one leg?"
"Well you see officers, every time I have company over the parrot becomes excited and falls off his perch ... rendering him unconscious for at least 30 minutes..."
Curiously as the balloons eventually floated away;
People complained about hearing popping noises followed by heated conversations from an unknown origin...

My apologies to both CN and CP. I enjoy reading everyone's comments.
Love her wealth of play on words!

Get a grip man, it's casual writin fer a humorous effect. Besides, would you capitolize th
"s" in sheriff if ya were actually talkin about th elected Sheriff? Ya do know thairs really only one Sheriff in th county an th rest are deputies?
Say, got me some pepper that's been layin out with fly's crawlin over it. Care ta remove th fly specks fer me?
"Sheesh," ta quote ya. Thank ya better take a deep breath an check yer clothin cus it appears yer shorts are chokin off th blood supply ta yer brain.
Now if ya wanta complain about what CP wrote, why not about th woman's feelin of safety? Are you or someone in yer family in th habit of openin doors ta strangers, even if it appears they might have th proper credentials?
Honestly, do ya know what those credentials would look like? I don't, so how would ya know thair legit an not somthang fabricated ta gain entry inta someone's home?
Personally, if she didn't know fer sure I thought she did th right thang but called th wrong agency because Tracy PD don't respond ta calls in Mountain House. That's th Sheriff's people that do that.
You don't capitalize the "s" in "sheriff" unless it immediately precedes the name, and you certainly don't capitalize the "p" in "parrot." Perhaps you are German, or at least German influenced; mid-sentence capitalization of common nouns is correct grammar over there.
And finally, please, please leave comedy to the professionals. Don't quit that day job just yet.
Sheesh.
-Drunk and urinating? Good grief. The cops could have just followed a trail...
There is an article on this if you don't know.
Determined? At least they didn't wake him up, but I wonder why they determined that? Maybe they suspected he didn't have a bed or a couch to go to?
You have probably already noticed I place most of my attention on the alcohol cases (obviously)!
I guess you cannot have alcoholic drinks open in certain areas? At a preschool, I think that is a no no. I think he was cited for public drunkenness if you cannot drink alcohol there?

The woman at the address (aka Sandra Bullock) said, "The Parrots lie and the buzzing noise was not me sawing my cheating husband's belongings in half."
