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,
> would run 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 them when they
> weren't paying attention.
