The Rooster
A farmer goes out one day and buys a brand new stud rooster
for
his
chicken
coop. The new rooster struts over to the old rooster and
says,
"OK
old
fart,
time for you to retire."
The old rooster replies, "Come on, surely you cannot handle
ALL
of
these
chickens. Look what it has done to me. Can't you just let me
have
the
two
old hens over in the corner?"
The young rooster says, "Beat it! You are washed up and I am
taking
over."
The old rooster says, "I tell you what, young stud. I will
race
you
around
the farmhouse. Whoever wins gets the exclusive domain over
the
entire
chicken coop."
The young rooster laughs, "You know you don't stand a chance
old
man,
so just to be fair I will give you a head start.
The old rooster takes off running. About 15 seconds later
the
young
rooster
takes off running after him. They round the front porch of
the
farmhouse
and
the young rooster has closed the gap. He is already about 5
feet
behind
the
old rooster and gaining
fast.
The farmer, meanwhile, is sitting in his usual spot on the
front
porch
when
he sees the roosters running by. He grabs up his shotgun and
BOOM!
He
blows
the young rooster to bits. The farmer sadly shakes his head
and
says,
"Dammit... third gay rooster I
bought this month."
Moral of this story... Don't mess with the OLD FARTS - age
and
treachery
will always overcome youth and speed!
