Kenny

[Mr Jones]

This farmer has about 500 hens, but no rooster, and he wants chicks

badly. So, he goes down the road to the next farm and asks if they have

a rooster that they would sell. The other farmer says, "Yes, I've got

this great rooster, named Kenny.He'll service every chicken you've got,

no problem." Trouble is, Kenny the rooster costs $3,000, a lot of money,

but the Farmer decides he'd be worth it. So, he buys Kenny. The farmer

takes Kenny home and sets him down in the barnyard, but first he gave

the rooster a pep talk. "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.

Consequently, I'll need you to do a good job. So, take your time and

Have some fun," the farmer said, with a chuckle. Kenny seems to

understand, so the farmer points toward the hen house and Kenny takes

off like a shot. WHAM! Kenny nails every hen in the hen house - three or

four times, and the farmer is really shocked. After that, the farmer

hears a commotion in the duck pen and, sure enough, Kenny is in there.

Later, the farmer sees Kenny after a flock of geese down by the lake.

Once again - WHAM! - All the geese get it. By sunset he sees Kenny out

in the fields chasing quail and pheasants. The farmer is distraught and

worried that his expensive rooster won't even last the night. Sure

enough, the farmer goes to bed and wakes up the next morning to find

Kenny on his back out in the middle of the yard, mouth open, tongue

hanging out and both feet sticking straight up in the air with Buzzards

circling overhead. The farmer, saddened by the loss of such a colourful

and expensive animal, shakes his head and says, "Oh, Kenny, I told you

to pace yourself. I tried to get you to slow down, now look what you've

done to yourself."

Kenny slowly opens one eye, nods toward the buzzards circling in the sky

above and says,

"Shut it, you're scaring the talent away."
