[Healeys] FW: BELLS (NEW VERSION) early friday funny

[insptwo at msn.com]

John the farmer was in the fertilized egg business. He had several hundred
young layers (hens), called "pullets", and ten roosters, whose job it was to
fertilize the eggs.The farmer kept records and any rooster that didn't perform
went into the soup pot and was replaced. That took an awful lot of his time,
so he  bought a set of tiny bells and attached them to his roosters. Each bell
had a different tone so John could tell from   a distance, which rooster was
performing. Now he could sit on the porch and fill out an efficiency report
simply by listening to the bells.The farmer's favorite rooster was old Butch,
a very fine specimen he was, too. But on this particular morning John noticed
old Butch's bell hadn't rung at all! John went to investigate. The other
roosters were chasing pullets, bells-a-ringing. The pullets, hearing the
roosters coming, wouldrun for cover.But to Farmer 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 Renfrew County Fair and he became an overnight sensation
among the judges.The result...The judges not only awarded old Butch the No
Bell Piece Prize but they 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 highly coveted awards on our planet by being
the best at sneaking up on the populace and screwing themwhen they weren't
paying attention.Vote carefully this year... the bells are not always audible
