Why did the chicken cross the road?

[Guest guest]

WHY DID THE CHICKEN CROSS THE ROAD?

(And they're not all political figures)

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.

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 had 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

The chicken will steal the job of a decent, hardworking American.

RUSH LIMBAUGH

Version 1: 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.

Version 2 (Addendum by sender): To get more hilly billy heroin, Oxycontin,

that is!

MARTHA STEWART

No one called me to warn me which way 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

Too 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 heartwarming story of how it

experienced a serious case of molting, and went on to accomplish it's life

long 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 an historic inevitability.

CAPTAIN KIRK

Too 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 eChicken2003, 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?

It's 27,000 not 270,000. But hey, it's only an extra " 0 " , and 0 is

nothing, right? a nothing typo.

Lenny

[Guest guest]

Didn't the announcment say something to the effect of " ensuring

Bernies vision ....for the long term " It makes me worry about Dr.

Rimlands health.

Who are you and why this big analysis? Bernie Rimland founded ASA and he is choosing to have them run ARI when he can no longer do it?

Why did the chicken cross the road? or Why did ASA, all these years anti-biomed, decide to partner with the Autism Research Institute? Here is the result of a little market research that may provide a clue.The following is a listing of the top 5 autism email discussion lists on groups by membership size. It's like an intelligence test question. Which one of the 5 does not fit the group and you will understand why the ASA is seeing the light about biomedical treatment of autism. (By the way, this list, EOHarm is in the top 25 out of nearly 2,000 total! Not bad for being only a year and a half old.)

Why do you believe there is no overlap? As an example, I am on

several list serves. Most do not touch my inbox.
