A burglar breaks into a house one night. He shines his flashlight around, looking for valuables, and when he picks up a CD player to place in his sack, a strange, disembodied voice echos from the dark saying, "Jesus is watching you."
He nearly jumps out of his skin, clicks his flashlight out, and freezes.
When he hears nothing more after a bit, he shakes his head, promises himself a vacation after the next big heist, then begins searching for more valuables.
Just as he pulls the stereo out so he can disconnect the wires, clear as a bell he hears, "Jesus is watching you."
Freaked out, he shines his light around frantically, looking for the source of the voice. Finally, in the corner of the room, his flashlight beam comes to rest on a parrot.
"Did you say that? He hisses at the parrot.
"Yep," the parrot squawks, "I'm just trying to warn you."
The burglar relaxes "Warn me, huh? Who in the world are you?"
"Moses," replies the bird.
"Moses?", the burglar laughs. "What kind of people would name a bird
Moses."
"The kind of people that would name a rottweiler Jesus."
