About the mayoral race ..........

[rgp]

Wilbur the French bull dog, has won the vote & the office of Mayor , in the small hamlet of Rabbit Hash ,Ky.

They have done this for years ..... electing a couple of dogs, a cat, chicken, even a goat in the past.

It's just a fun thing, costs $1.00 [one dollar] too vote............all monies collected goes to various charities .

Of course , due to the political nature of my post, ...... It might well be pulled ..............

That depends, rgp. Is Wilbur a blue D or a red R?

For whatever it's worth, here's the wit of Abraham Lincoln:

"Seems the local weather predictor, in his home town of Springfield, Illinois, failed more than not at second guessing nature. Then one day a boy came to the Mayor claiming that he could tell every time a storm was going to approach.
The Mayor tried him out on several occasions and, sure enough, the boy was consistantly right.

The Mayor was about to fire the old weatherman and instate the boy when the lad said he wouldn't accept the position. "It's my jackass that does the predicting." he said. "Whenever a storm is building, he scratches his ear and brays terrible."
So the Mayor appointed the jackass instead.

Abe would always pause at this point and say in a low tone, "That was the Mayor's mistake."
"Why?" everyone would ask Lincoln.

"Because, ever since then, jackasses have been seeking public office!"

While this is meant as wit instead of wisdom, it nevertheless was acceptable in his day, and most farmers knew changing weather did affect animal's behavior.
