A Parrot with its Head on Straight
Winston Churchill, a roly-poly balding guy who just happened to be Prime Minister of England, apparently kept a pet parrot named Charlie.

Parrots can live to be incredibly ancient, upwards of 150 years old. So it's no surprise that Churchill's pet parrot Charlie remains alive and kicking. And, as we all know, parrots can...uhm...parrot...us...right. Charlie, it seems, has a pair of favorite expressions: "Fuck the Nazis" and "Fuck Hitler."

Good for her!

Further, Charlie can apparently say these in Churchill's voice, which implies that Churchill himself said those expressions several times. Good to know he taught his bird right.
