Why Did The Chicken Cross The Road?

GEORGE W. BUSH
We don’t really care why the chicken crossed the road. We just want to know if the chicken is on our side of the road or not. The chicken is either against us or for us. There is no middle ground here.

COLIN POWELL
Now to the left of the screen, you can clearly see the satellite image of the chicken crossing the road.

HANS BLIX
We have reason to believe there is a chicken, but we have not yet been allowed to have access to the other side of the road.

JOHN KERRY
Although I voted to let the chicken cross the road I am now against it.

RALPH NADER
The chicken’s habitat on the other side of the road has been polluted by unchecked industrial greed. The chicken did not reach the unspoiled habitat on the other side of the road because it was crushed by the wheels of a gas-guzzling SUV.

PAT BUCHANAN
To steal the job of a decent, hard-working American.

RUSH LIMBAUGH
I don’t know why the chicken crossed the road, but I’ll bet it was getting a government grant to cross the road, and I'll bet that somebody out there is already forming a support group to help chickens with crossing-the-road syndrome. Can you believe this? How much more of this can real Americans take? Chickens crossing the road paid for by their tax dollars. And when I say tax dollars, I’m talking about your money, money the government took from you to build a road for chickens to cross.

MARTHA STEWART
No one called me to warn me which was that chicken was going. I had a standing order at the Farmer’s Market to sell my eggs when the price dropped to a certain level. No little bird gave me any insider information.

JERRY FALWELL
Because the chicken was gay – isn’t it obvious? Can’t you people see the plain truth in front of your face? The chicken was going to “the other side”. That’s what they call it – “the other side”. Yes, my friends, that chicken is gay. And if you eat that chicken, you will become gay too. I say we boycott all chickens until we sort out this abomination that the liberal media whitewashes with seemingly harmless phrases like “the other side”.

DR. SEUSS
Did the chicken cross the road? Did he cross it with a toad? Yes, the chicken crossed the road, but why it crossed I’ve not been told.

ERNEST HEMINGWAY.
To die in the rain. Alone.

MARTIN LUTHER KING JR.
I envision a world where all chickens will be free to cross roads without having their motives called into question.

GRANDPA
In my day, we didn’t ask why the chicken crossed the road. Somebody told us the chicken crossed the road, and that was good enough.

BARBARA WALTERS
Isn’t that interesting? In a few moments, we will be listening to the chicken tell, for the first time, the heart-warming story of how it experienced a serious case of molting, and went on to accomplish its lifelong dream of crossing the road.

JOHN LENNON
Imagine all the chickens in the world crossing roads together – in peace.

ARISTOTLE
It is the nature of chickens to cross the road.

KARL MARX
It was in historic inevitability.

RONALD REAGAN
What chicken?

CAPTAIN KIRK
To boldly go where no chicken has ever gone before.

SIGMUND FREUD
The fact that you are at all concerned that the chicken crossed the road reveals your underlying sexual insecurity.

BILL GATES
I have just witnessed eChicken2004, which will not only cross roads, but will lay eggs, file your important documents, and balance your checkbook, and Internet Explorer is an integral part of eChicken.

ALBERT EINSTEIN
Did the chicken really cross the road, or did the road move beneath the chicken?

BILL CLINTON
I did not cross the road with THAT chicken. What is your definition of ‘chicken’?

AL GORE
I invented the chicken.

THE BIBLE
And God came down from heaven, and He said unto the chicken, “THOU SHALT CROSS THE ROAD.” And the chicken didst cross the road, and there was much rejoicing.

COLONEL SANDERS
Did I miss one?

You know, they never really say the chicken got to the other side...Do you think it did? It's always the Possum I see as roadkill so I could see how it would want proof. Although, I did see a dead squirrel on the side of the road the other day...(just guess who I thought of when I saw that)

Edited to say, I just read through the whole post and saw where it's in the bible that the chicken did actually cross the road and the bible can't be wrong. But I'm flattered I was questioning the event like Albert Einstein.:eek:

I think a more important question is which came first, the chicken or the egg? But that may be too controversal, even for this forum.;-)
 
LOL!! Thanks for the mid-day chuckles A-Jock, I don't think this should arouse any controversy like that darned 'ant and grasshopper'. Hey! maybe the chicken was crossing for mediation with the ant/grasshopper, nah, nevermind...
Take Care

To see if the grass was indeed greener on the other side? To ogle at the roosters in the farm next door? To get a better perspective on the meaning of life? Just some thoughts...

Thanks for the laughs.:7

BRIEE......because he was working out to get a huge bicep vein like AJ's





Briee (I LOVED this thread) and the chicken came first!!
 
Sooooooooooooo and Brieeeeeeeeeeeee . . .

My biceps veins are exploding, thank you very much. In fact, I checked my exercise log and I haven't taken any meaningful time off since, oh . . . LAST SEPTEMBER (this includes Christmas when I managed to hit the YMCA with my brother Douglas in Gloucester Mass. 4 times that week), so I'm taking next week off to watch my biceps deflate and my veins shrivel.

The answer to the eternal chicken-and-egg question is: neither. The Squirrel came first, and begat all other creatures.

Rocky, Buckingham, Heinrich (in memoriam), and Fiona (you little tart) . . . take a bow.

Oh come on Susan did you make this up or did Rocky? Candi just who were you referring to up above - that is not funny
:p :p :p
 
I swear, A-Jock, you never fail to make me laugh out loud!

Briee, okay, Rocky did make that up. He's been kind of preoccupied since A-Jock brought up Fiona...
 
Speaking of Fiona, Candi posted about seeing a dead squirrel on the side of the road. Fiona has "attempted" suicide in the past. (She's a drama queen. We always thought she was faking.) But now with this illegitimate litter of squirrels..I just hope she didn't do anything drastic...

Candi, did this squirrel have multiple body piercings?
 
That's not all Fiona's had to fake in this life. She told me that Rocky was the lousiest ***** she's ever had . . . and she's had a few.

She does recommend Rocky check out the book "Squirrelerotica For Dummies" at your local library.

Chicken and the Egg

A chicken and an egg are lying in bed. The chicken is leaning against the headboard smoking a cigarette with a satisfied smile on its face. The egg, looking a bit ticked off, grabs the sheet, rolls over and says ... Well, I guess we finally answered "THAT question!"


Bobbi http://www.handykult.de/plaudersmilies.de/chicken.gif "Chick's rule!"

Tell me, what is it you plan to do
with your one wild and precious life?

:D :D :D :D :D :D You folks are cracking me up today!! Thank you - I needed this!! I think if the chicken did try to mediate between the ant and the grasshopper, he would have been roadkill ... LOL!!

Carol
:)
 
If the chicken tried to mediate between the ant and the grasshopper, he'd transubstantiate into a squirrel . . . or is that Catholic-bashing?
