John, who was in the fertilized egg business, had several hundred young hens called 'pullets,' and ten roosters to fertilize the eggs.
He kept strict 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.
Since each bell had a different tone, John 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.
His 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 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, where he became an overnight sensation among the judges, who awarded old Butch the 'No Bell Piece Prize' in addition to the 'Pullet Surprise'.
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.
Vote carefully ...the bells are not always audible!

I know this is aimed at American politicians but it could so easily apply over here! Very amusing!
