Note to self: When having an affair, don't do it in front of the parrot.
A dog once outed It's Raining Florence Henderson's fiance. Every time I'd ask "How do you like it?" The dog would say "Rough. Rough."
"I was talking to [my fiance]," I'd tell the dog.
"I know," said the dog. "I'm tellin' ya - the bitch likes it rough!"
It's a shame that this article suggests that Suzy had said that she didnt know a Gary either, and quick look at the Guardian online suggests that the original paper-edition story has been edited. According to the paper, the couple were snuggling on the sofa when the parrot came out with "i love you, Gary", a chill went down the blokes spine and Suzy turned bright red. Then "feathers flew", lol.
But a nice angle for the city that has an awesome parrot population of their own up on Telegraph Hill:
Mudpup, I've only had sex in front of a pet once and his reaction to us was so unnerving that I vow to never again: to wit, our dog Fado, began howling and rolling on the carpet, then jumping up on our bed, then taking off down the hall and doing circles around our kitchen table. (okay, that was me - but the dog sniffing at us was odd enough, really.)
