Maestro??

An old musician was walking in a street when he saw a little shop with the sign: “Musical pets”. With great curiosity, he walked in and saw a beautiful parrot: big, elegant and with a green, yellow, red and blue plumage. He was really impressed and decided to buy it.

The dealer said: “Good choice! It’s $10,000”

“$10,000!? “— Replied the old man — “Why is it so expensive?”

“This beautiful parrot can sing all Mozart Arias by heart!”

“Really? Amazing but it’s really a bit too much for me “ when he said these words he noticed another parrot, a bit smaller than the other and less colored. “It must be cheaper,” he thought so he asked the price to the shop owner.

“Oh, That parrot costs $20,000”

“$20,000!“ - said, the customer shocked “Why?”

“Besides all Mozart, it can sing also all Wagner and Verdi Operas....

“Astonishing, but it’s really too much, listen that little, ugly, all black parrot there in the corner it MUST be cheaper, right, how much is it?

“Well, that is $100,000”

“What?! exclaimed the poor man, totally upset - "What can it do?"

"Oh, actually it can do nothing but all the others call him MAESTRO!"
