There were 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, and 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, would run
for
cover. But to Farmer John's amazement, old Butch had his bell in his
beak, so it couldn't ring. He would 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 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 highly coveted awards on our planet by
being
the best at sneaking up on the populace and screwing them when they
weren't paying attention














was all aglow.
