This is for the chicken farmers on these threads and to remind us why FReeRepublic is here...

Old Butch

Mark was in the fertilized egg business.

He had several hundred young layers (hens), called ‘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.

Mark’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 Mark’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.

Mark was so proud of old Butch, he
entered him in the
Hamilton
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 Democrat in the making. Who else but a Democrat
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!!!
