Counting Parakeets

Pete is a doctor. He’s working the night shift, and desperately needs to get some sleep. But he hasn’t a chance, with Ollie, a chattering parakeet who's decided to perch on Pete's gate post. He finally cracks and follows the bird to a classy house on the far side of town, where he finds Ollie’s owner, Andy, hanging upside-down.

Delightful as Andy is, Pete’s too tired to be tempted by the performance artiste, who promises to keep Ollie under control. But Pete’s curious to know ... What does a performance artiste do exactly? There’s only one way to find out.
