OLD ROOSTER
A farmer went out one day
and bought 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 win! s 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 only 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 his shotgun and - BOOM - he
blows the young rooster to bits.
The farmer sadly shakes his head and says:
"Darn....third gay rooster I bought this month."
Moral of this story?
Don't mess with the OLD FARTS - age, skill, and
treachery will
always overcome youth and arrogance! |
