Name: He's a Meyers parrot (small African species).
How long you have had it: one year, got him from previous owner, he's about two years old.
Age, how long will it live: Meyers live about 30 years.
Is it easy to take care of: Providing for their basic care is easy, but they are very HIGH MAINTENANCE pets that NEED lots of attention and social interaction or else they can become a problem really fast (biting, etc.). You can't just lock them in a cage and forget about them for hours. They are highly intelligent (like dolphins) yet emotionally volatile. You need to work at developing a relationship with them which takes lots of time (and I mean QUALITY TIME). So, if you're not fiercely dedicated to building that relationship, to studying parrots, etc., I would not recommend it. But if you are, you'll have an affectionate lifetime companion better than any dog or cat you could imagine.
Does it get annoying: sometimes, but it goes with the territory; you need to be very patient and understand how parrots think, what they respond to, etc. -- much different than a dog. Many people get parrots not knowing what they're in for, then get rid of them, which is irresponsible and cruel. They're a lifetime commitment (bigger species live 80-years plus). It's like having a small feathered kid. So if your wife isn't ready for that kind of serious, demanding connection, I'd recommend a parakeet, canary, dog, cat, etc.
Is it expensive to purchase own: I'd recommend getting a rescue bird with a good behavior history vs. from a pet store or breeder. I paid $600 for my little guy, his first owner said she paid $1k. They need a large cage with lots of toys to be happy, which would run you around $500 to start. Food is not expensive, plus they eat healthy human food like fruits, veggies, pasta, whole-wheat toast, etc.
What is it vocabulary: He talks a lot -- hello, hi, bye-bye, what, I love you, and lots of stuff I can't quite make out. He likes to play tug-of-war, a modified form of catch, likes to wrestle a bit and loves to have his head, neck and upper back scratched. I let my bird fly around which is the best for their overall well-being. He likes to hang out on my shoulder a lot. Likes watching the Pats and thinks the Jets really suck. If you want to know more, PM me.

Thanks for the reply Tune, very interesting, I don't think a parrot would be a good idea for us, but really enjoyed hearing about Meyer.

At least cats are good at keeping down the pest population...The Jets seem to be increasing it

oh yeah Jets suck

Never watched it, that might be why

And yes, the Jets do suck

I am allergic to cats and they can kill me. I will get enjoyment from the Green Beans imploding this year under the massive gut of Wrecks. Therefore cats suck more than the Green Beans

I haven't posted in this thread for some time. It's prudent that I add my thought for my own sanity.

The Jets suck.

Indeed. Cromartie is an all-pro at increasing populations.

Aren't they supposed to be good for taking out rats? What about Ratgini?

More annoying is meowsers walking across piano keyes at 3 AM. Hey, maybe the meowser could at the very least 'cure' the parrot problem...

Musical cats that know how to lift the lid of the piano!

I'm OK with cats as dancers but their singing reminds me of Rex Ryan.

 

[PatsWickedPissah]

Speaking of Meowsers what ever happened to Gomezcat?

The biggest crisis facing Jets?
Too many black athlets don't have a clue how to RAISE children.

How can singing be overweight?

I can confirm that Jets do indeed suck (tribute to a fallen high school buddy)
Senior year in high school – there was a kid in senior lounge that would tell tall tales (or so we believed) every day.

Like when:

1. He was doing 160 in his uncles Lamborghini driving east on I90 when a cop in a souped-up Mustang Cobra police super car – pulled up beside him and pulled him over. After deciding not to smoke the cop in a drag race he decides to pull over. Even though he was doing 160 – he talks his way into just receiving a ticket.

2. How he disarmed a would be armed robber on his family’s trip to NYC.

3. How he could bench press x amount of weight. We called him on this one and made a sizable wager that he could not perform one complete bench press at this weight. He accepted – we went down to the weight room and after shakily getting the bar off of the weight bench he realized that he would not be able to naturally complete the bench. Instead of giving up he decides to bounce the bar and weights off of his chest to gain some needed momentum – he let the weight fall in a virtual free fall and broke his sternum…

4. He bedded 3 college nursing students after his car broke down and they picked him up in an already cramped 2 seat Corvette. He claimed that 2 were model material but he had to make a small sacrifice for the third.

5. How he made hundreds of thousands and soon to be millions on insider trading info from his fathers contacts on the street.

There were many more but you get the idea. After graduation I learned that he joined the Air Force. He died in a fashion that lived up to the high implausibility standards of his stories. While aiding a comrade in a training related accident he was sucked into one of the Jet’s engines. Yep, Jets do suck.

Long way to go for a punch line and perhaps in poor taste – but he was a Pats fan and if you knew him he would approve of this thread and this post.

Maybe that refered to one of Rex's other 'overs'

Overrated
Overinflated ego
Over/under 3 years before fired
Over/under week 9 before he cries on camera, and says his team is eliminated
Over/under 8 wins with Revis
Over/under 5 wins without Revis
Over/under 3 more times that he says something stupid (i.e. have the whole team negotiate with Revis) and the team has to make a public statement that they wont discuss a topic publicly
Over his head in the AFC East

I dunno.

After that story, I'm a bit leery of becomming one of his friends.

I don't think that guy was one of his friends

And if he is; don't stand near a jet engine
