Gordon the Rooster

Trevor the farmer was in the fertilised egg business. He had severalhundred young layers (hens), called 'pullets' and eight or ten roosters,whose job was to fertilise the eggs.


The farmer kept records and any rooster that didn't perform went into thesoup pot and was replaced. That took an awful lot of his time so hebought a set of tiny bells and attached them to his roosters. Each bellhad a different tone so Trevor could tell from a distance which roosterwas performing. Now he could sit on the porch and fill out an efficiencyreport simply by listening to the bells.

The farmer's favourite rooster was old Gordon, and a very fine specimenhe was too, but on this particular morning Trevor noticed old Gordon'sbell hadn't rung at all! Trevor went to investigate. The other roosterswere chasing pullets, bells-a-ringing. The pullets, hearing the roosterscoming, would run for cover but to farmer Trevor's amazement, Gordon hadhis bell in his beak, so it couldn't ring. He' d sneak up on a pullet, dohis job and walk on to the next one!

Trevor was so proud of Gordon, he entered him into the WestBerksCountyFair and Gordon became an overnight sensation among the judges.

The Result- the judges not only awarded Gordon the No Bell Piece Prize but they alsoawarded him the Pulletsurprise as well.

Clearly Gordon was a politician in the making: Who else but a politiciancould figure out how to win two of the most highly coveted awards on ourplanet by being the best at sneaking up on the populace and screwingthem when they weren't paying attention.

Do you know a Pullitician called Gordon ? .............
