Butch the Rooster *funny*

[auntAgonist]

John the farmer was in the fertilized egg business.



He had several hundred young layers (hens), called

pullets and eight or ten roosters, whose job was to

fertilize the eggs. The farmer kept records and any

rooster that didn't perform went into the soup pot and

was replaced.



That took an awful lot of his time so he bought a set

of tiny bells and attached them to his roosters. Each

bell had a different tone so John could tell from a

distance, which rooster was performing. Now he could

sit on the porch and fill out an efficiency report

simply by listening to the bells.



The farmer's favorite rooster was old Butch, a very

fine specimen he was, too. But on this particular

morning John noticed old Butch's bell hadn't rung at

all! John went to investigate. The other roosters

were chasing pullets, bells-a-ringing. The pullets,

hearing the roosters coming, would run for cover.



BUT, to Farmer John's amazement, Butch had his bell in

his beak, so it couldn't ring. He'd sneak up on a

pullet, do his job and walk on to the next one. John

was so proud of Butch, he entered him in the county

fair.



Butch became an overnight sensation among the judges.



The result: the judges not only awarded Butch the

"No Bell Piece Prize" but they also awarded him the

"Pulletsurprise" as well.



Clearly Butch was a Politician in the making. Who

else but a politician could figure out how to win two

of the most highly coveted awards on our planet by

being the best at sneaking up on the populace and

screwing them when they weren't paying attention?
