‘On a Presidential visit to a farm, Mrs Coolidge asked her guide how many times the rooster copulated daily.1 “Dozens of times” was the reply. “Please tell that to the President,” Mrs Coolidge requested. When the President passed the pens and was told about the rooster, he asked: “Same hen every time?” “Oh no, Mr President, a different one each time.” The President nodded slowly, then said: “Tell that to Mrs Coolidge.”’
