"I met the luckiest little canary at the park today." "What makes him so lucky?" "Because he has the world's easiest job." "What's he do?" "Well, he travels into coal mines with these miners and while the miners slave away, he just sits there." "He can't believe it...they don't make him dig or anything." "He says that with all that free time, he reads magazines, does word jumbles, and writes letters to his girlfriend..." "Some guys have all the luck..."
Yes until there’s a gas leak and he dies to show the miners to get out. DOH!
