    A few days before Christmas, a man enters a pet store looking for a unique
    gift for his wife.


    The store manager tells him he has just what he's looking for!


    A beautiful parrot named Chet that sings Christmas carols. He brings the
    husband over to a colorful but quiet bird.


    The man agrees that Chet certainly is pretty, but he doesn't seem to be
    much for singing. The manager tells him to watch as he reaches into his
    pocket and pulls out a lighter. The manager then clicks the lighter and
    holds it under Chet's left foot.


    Immediately, Chet starts singing; "Silent Night, Holy Night."


    The husband is very impressed with Chet's singing abilities and watches as
    the manager moves the lighter underneath Chet's right foot.


    Chet now starts to sing "Jingle Bells, Jingle All the Way."


    The husband says Chet is perfect and that he'll take him. The husband
    rushes home to his wife and insists upon giving her this wonderful gift
    immediately He presents Chet and starts to explain the parrot's special
    talent.


    Demonstrating, he holds a lighter under Chet's left foot and the bird sings
    "Silent Night."


    He then moves the lighter under the right foot and Chet lets loose a round
    of "Jingle Bells."


    The wife is absolutely impressed, and with a mischievous grin asks her
    husband what happens if he holds the lighter under both of Chet's feet
    instead. The husband says that he doesn't know, but they could try it.


    So the husband puts the lighter under both of the birds feet and the bird
    begins to sing, "Chet's nuts roasting on an open fire...."
