On a very tenuously related note

The rooster on the farm has just died and the farmer goes to buy a new one. His last rooster was amazing and he's actually thinking about buying even more hens as well so he gets very picky. Finally the guy at the market says, "listen, there is one other rooster I've got. You'd have to be sure though- he's a randy little bugger. A lot of guys have brought him back- said they just couldn't handle him." The farmer agrees to take the rooster and sets him to work straight away. The rooster repetitively and energetically shags every hen on the farm. He moves on to the turkeys and even the ducks before collapsing in a heap in the yard. Minutes pass and still the rooster doesn't move. Vultures start circling overhead. The farmer is heartbroken. He paid a fair bit of money for the rooster and he was starting to admire the little fellow. He goes over to pick up its body. It opens one eye, winks at him and goes "ssshhhh!".
