Food for thought

I saw this on Facebook. As far as I could trace it on the internet, it was tweeted by Banksy, the street artist, with the caption: "You can kill a man, but you can't kill an idea."

Good joke with a political commentary post-script

Mrsgunka sent us a joke that works really well with or without the post-script. Thank you, MrsG.

Fred was in the fertilized egg business. He had several hundred
young ‘pullets,' and ten roosters to fertilize the eggs.

He kept records, and any rooster not performing went into the soup
pot and was replaced.

This took a lot of time, so he bought some tiny bells and attached
them to his roosters.

Each bell had a different tone, so he could tell from a distance,
which rooster was performing.

Now, he could sit on the porch and fill out an efficiency report by
just listening to the bells.

Fred's favorite rooster, old Butch, was a very fine specimen, but
one morning he noticed old Butch's bell hadn't rung at all!

When he went to investigate, he saw the other roosters were busy
chasing pullets, bells-a-ringing, but the pullets, hearing the roosters
coming, would run for cover.

To Fred's amazement, old Butch had his bell in his beak, so it couldn't ring.

He'd sneak up on a pullet, do his job and walk on to the next one.

Fred was so proud of old Butch, he entered him in the Brisbane City Show and he became an overnight sensation among the judges. The result was the judges not only awarded old Butch the "No Bell Piece Prize," but they also awarded him the "Pulletsurprise" as well.

PS - Clearly old Butch was a politician in the making. Who else but a politician could figure out how to win two of the most coveted awards on our planet by being the best at sneaking up on the unsuspecting populace and screwing them when they weren't paying attention? Vote carefully in the next election, and remember... you can't always hear the bells!

[I find it quite disturbing that Australians voted for and got a tea party style government. The madness seems to be spreading!]

I don't like this shampoo!

Shapeshifterbelly found this funny video of a very endearing dog, called Betty White! Thank you, SSB.

The description on the youtube page:

This baby needed a flea bath and while she was soaking in the flea shampoo these amazing sounds came out of her. She's sure to bring a smile to your face every time!
