John was in the fertilized egg business.
He had several hundred young layers (hens),
Called 'pullets
He kept records, and any rooster not performing
Went into the soup pot and was replaced.
This took a lot of time, so he bought some
Tiny bells and attached them to his roosters.
Each bell had a different tone, so he could tell
From a distance, which rooster was performing.
Now, he could sit on the porch and fill out
An efficiency report by just listening to the bells.
John's favorite rooster, old Butch,
Was a very fine specimen,
But this morning he noticed old
Butch's bell hadn't rung at all!
When he went to investigate, he saw the other
Roosters were busy chasing pullets,
Bells-a-ringing, but the pullets,
Hearing the roosters coming,
Would run for cover.
To 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 and walk on to the next one.
John was so proud of old Butch,
He entered him in the County Fair
And he became an overnight sensation among the judges.
The result was 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.

VOTE CAREFULLY
THIS YEAR,

THE BELLS
ARE NOT ALWAYS AUDIBLE!




This is here as a joke, not to debate Enjoy
