They kind of pick up things to say that sound interesting to them, like little kids do. Charlie, an African Grey parrot makes all sorts of bodily function noises (mainly taught to them by my nieces who think belching is hilarious). Another Grey parrot, Cotton decided she liked all the awful John Kerry ads (yes they watch TV sometimes). She constantly asks "Wheres John Kerry?" I have all sorts of interesting snswers for her LOL
Maybe I'll have to re-think parrots--sounds like you can have a lot of fun with them!

Oh, you definitely should get a video of that.
I would love to have a household just like yours! I had a Grey, but he died a few months ago.
Now, I just have two little parakeets.
I'd love to have a houseful of birds.
