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 Delaware 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.

Vote carefully...........

The bells are not always audible!

A woman in a supermarket is following a grandfather and his badly behaved three-year-old grandson. It's obvious to her that he has his hands full with the child screaming for candy in the candy aisle, cookies in the cookie aisle and for cereal and soda in the other aisles.
Meanwhile, Granddad is working his way around, saying in a controlled voice: "Easy, William, we won't be long, easy, boy."
Another outburst, and she hears the granddad calmly say: "It's OK, William, just a couple more minutes and we'll be out of here. Hang in there, boy."
At the checkout, the little terror is throwing items out of the cart, and Granddad says again in a controlled voice: "William, William, relax buddy, don't get upset. We'll be home in five minutes; stay cool, William."
Very impressed, the woman goes outside where the grandfather is loading his groceries and the boy into the car. She says to the elderly gentleman: "It's none of my business, but you were amazing in there. I don't know how you did it. That whole time, you kept your composure, and no matter how loud and disruptive he got, you just calmly kept saying things would be OK. William is very lucky to have you as his grandpa."
"Thanks," said the grandfather, "but I'm William. The little shit's name is Kevin."
