| A farmer has 200 hens, but no rooster, and he wants chicks, so he goes down the road to the next farmer and asks if he has a rooster for sale. The other farmer says, "Yeah, I've got this great rooster, named Slick. He'll service every chicken you've got, no problem. Matter of fact, I'm so sure of Slicks prowess, that I'll give you double your money back, if your not satisfied with his proformance" Well, Slick the rooster costs a lot of money, but the farmer decides he'd be worth it, so, he buys him. The farmer takes Slick home and sets him down in the barnyard, giving the rooster a pep talk. "Slick, I want you to pace yourself now. You've got a lot of chickens to service here, and you cost me a lot of money, and I'll need you to do a good job. So, take your time and have some fun," the farmer said with a chuckle. Slick seemed to understand, so the farmer pointed toward the henhouse and Slick took off like a shot. Wham! He nails every hen in the hen house three or four times and the farmer is just shocked. Slick runs out of the hen house and spots a flock of geese down by the lake. Wham! He gets all the geese. Slick's up in the barn with the pigeons, He's in the pond with the ducks. Slick is humping every fowl the farmer has on his land. The farmer is distraught, worried that his expensive rooster won't even last the day. Sure enough, the farmer goes to bed and upon awakening the next day, finds Slick dead as a doornail, still as a rock, in the middle of the yard. Buzzards are circling overhead. The farmer, saddened by the loss of such a colorful animal, shakes his head and says, "Oh Slick, I told you to pace yourself. I tried to get you to slow down. Now look what you've done to yourself." Slick opens one eye, nods toward the sky and says, "Shut-up, I think they're getting closer." |
