BUTCH THE ROOSTER.....
>>
>>
>> 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, and 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 Boone County Fair
>> and Butch became an overnight sensation among the judges.
>>
>> The result...
>>
>>
>> The judges not only awarded Butch the No Bell Piece Prize, 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?
