Joke of the Day...

Fred 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 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.
 Fred'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 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 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. [TG]
