#6 Although the targeted roosters escaped harm, dozens of innocent hens and small chicks were killed by the tires of the infidels. This will infuriate the Chicken Street, and the roosters are already strapping suicide bomb vests on brainwashed chicks.

#10 USAF:
"As you can see here in the target video, the bomb was locked onto the chicken...and there it goes...the chicken is still moving...still moving...and unfortunately passed out of the parameters of the guidance system so that the bomb completely missed it and hit the weasel instead. Gotta admit thought, it's impressive footage..."

#13 "Kerry: 'The chicken crossed the road before it did not'"
That's "The chicken crossed the road before it did not and did you know I served in Vietnam?"

"LOL! This thread has "Classics" written all over it..."
I agree wholeheartedly.

#21 PETA: The Chicken was on it's way to work to provide for his family, when the death squads of Tyson spotted the Chicken and began chase. The Chicken was caught and will be sent a concentration camp where he will then be "processed" and divided up into 4 Chicken McNugget Happy Meals. The Chicken will be in our hearts forever, along with Adolf Hitler, who gave us an excuse to run "Holocaust on Your Plate" ads.

#26 Rafael - And, 10,000 years from now, palaeontologists find a chicken skeleton with some indistinguishable rusted metal with a trace of heretofore unknown minerals. A worldwide confrence of the scientific community is called to discuss the find. Charles Darwin, MCMIC (the
1999th) will chair the discussion. It is titled - "Regressive Evolution: The Chickens Used WMDs; Now They're Only Good for Dinner".
