Re: A few to make you laugh

John the farmer was in the fertilized egg business. He had several hundred
young layers (hens), called "pullets" & 10 roosters, whose job it was to
fertilize the eggs.

The farmer kept records & any rooster that didn't perform went into the
soup pot & was replaced. That took an awful lot of his time, so he bought
a set of tiny bells & 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 & 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, old Butch had his bell in his beak, so it
couldn't ring. He'd sneak up on a pullet, do his job & walk on to the next
one.

John was so proud of old Butch, he entered him in the Renfrew County Fair a=
nd
he became an overnight sensation among the judges. The result was that the
judges not only awarded old Butch the "No Bell Piece Prize", but they also
awarded him the Pulletsurprise as well.=20

Clearly old 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 p=
lanet by being the best at sneaking up on the populace and screwing them wh=
en they weren't paying attention.

 Vote carefully; Sometimes the politicians keep the bells quiet.
