Winner, winner, parrot dinner! Come read "Papa's Parrot," winner of the New Millennium competition!

I'll be using this to impress women in poorly lit bars, so please be sure to leave glowing comments.

No prompts on this one.  Just a 1,000 word limit and a song in my heart.

Was browsing over some older posts and found this news.  

Hearty congratulations Sir! It's an excellent story, with depth and resonance.  And a parrot.  What's not to like?

You demonstrate that there is hope for us all. (Assuming that we also have the talent and work ethic you clearly possess).(Big assumption).

I'm not at all jealous. Not at all.Wink

So just ignore my gritted teeth when I say: very well done, you deserve it.
