Strategic Rooster

[BikerGran]

Fred P. Suggins was in the fertilized egg business. He had several hundred young 'pullets,' and ten roosters to fertilize the eggs. He kept records, and any rooster not performing went into the soup pot to be replaced by a younger, more vigorous bird.

This took a lot of time, so he bought small bells and attached them to his roosters. Each bell had a different jingle, so he could tell from a distance, which rooster was performing. He could sit on the porch and fill out an efficiency report by just listening to the bells, "Real scientific, " Fred was heard to say.

Fred's favorite rooster, old Butch, was a very fine specimen, but his bell was not ringing! When he went to investigate, he saw the other roosters were busy chasing pullets, ringing their bells, but the pullets, on hearing the roosters coming, would run for cover.

To Fred'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 and walk on to the next one.

Fred was so proud of old Butch, he entered him in the Brisbane City Show and he became an overnight sensation with the judges. The judges not only awarded old Butch the "No Bell Piece Prize, " but they also awarded him the "Pulletsurprise " as well.

Clearly old Butch was a politician in the making. Who else but a politician could figure out how to win two of the most coveted awards on our planet by being the best at sneaking up on the unsuspecting populace and screwing them when they weren't paying attention.

The moral of the story is: Vote carefully in the next election, you can't always hear the bells.

You will, however, always be able to hear the Bullshit!
