A local newspaper told an anecdote about a burglar who stalked the
neighborhood watching for homes left unguarded by people leaving for vacation.
He watched as a family loaded their suitcases into their car and departed.  He
waited until dark and then approached the front door and rang the bell.  There
was no answer.  The burglar neatly picked the lock and let himself in.  He
called into the darkness, "Is anybody home?"

He was stunned when he heard a voice reply,"I see you, and Jesus sees you."
Terrified, the burglar called out,"Who's there?"  Again the voice came back,
"I see you, and Jesus sees you."  The burglar switched on his flashlight and
aimed it in the direction of the voice.  He was instantly relieved when his
light revealed a caged parrot reciting the refrain, "I see you, and Jesus sees
you."

The burglar laughted out loud and switched on the lights.  Then he saw it.
Beneath the parrot's cage was a huge Doberman pinscher.  Then the parrot said,
"Attack, Jesus, attack!"
