Brenda was in the fertilized egg business.

She had several hundred young 'pullets' and ten roosters to

fertilize the eggs.    

She kept records, and any rooster not performing went into the

soup pot and was replaced. This took a lot of time, so she bought some

tiny bells and attached them to her roosters. Each bell had a

different tone, so she could tell from a distance, which rooster was

performing. Now, she could sit on the porch and fill out an efficiency

report by just listening to the bells. 

Brenda's favourite rooster, old Butch, was a very fine specimen,

but this morning she noticed old Butch's bell hadn't rung at all! 

When she went to investigate, she saw the other roosters were

busy chasing pullets, bells-a-ringing, but the pullets, hearing the

roosters coming, would run for cover. 

To Brenda'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. 

Brenda was so proud of old Butch, she 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. 

Vote carefully in the next election...you can't always hear the bells. 

If you don't send this on, you're chicken, no yoke? !!!
