Platneus and X-treme sports

Two men walk into a pet shop and go over to the bird section.

Sonnyboy says to Umfan, "Dat's dem." The clerk asks if he can help them.


"Yebo, we take four of dose beds in dat cage lapa side," says Umfan.

Put beds in a pepa bag pleez, baas!"

The two guys pay for the birds and leave the shop. They get into
Sonnyboy's van and drive until they are high up on the hill and stop at
the top of a cliff with a 500-foot drop. Sonnyboy takes the birds out
of the bag, places 2 on each of his shoulders and jumps off the cliff.
Umfan watches as Sonnyboy goes straight down for a few seconds followed by
a 'SPLAT'.

As Umfan looks over the edge of the cliff he shakes his head and says,
"Haibo, dis budgie jumpin' is too dangerous for me."

A minute later, Philemon arrives. He too has been to the pet shop and
carries the familiar 'pepa bag'. He pulls a parrot out of the bag and is
carrying a gun in his other hand.

"Heita, Umfan. Watch dis." Philemon says, and launches himself over the
edge of the cliff.

Umfan watches as half way down, Philemon takes the gun, blows the parrot's
head off and continues to plummet until there is a SPLAT, as he joins
Sonnyboy's remains at the bottom.

Umfan shakes his head and says, "Eish baba, me is never tryin' dat
parrotshooting nider."

After a few minutes, Goodman strolls up. He too has been to the pet shop
and is carrying the familiar 'pepa bag'. Instead of a parrot he pulls a
chicken out of the bag, and launches himself off the cliff with the same
result.

Once more Umfan shakes his head.

"Hauw! First der was Sonnyboy wit his budgie-jumping, den Philemon
parrotshooting and now Goodman hen-gliding!
