Vanity of being the only chicken to cross the road.

Although blighted by a certain sense of existential despair, this was no ordinary chicken. Not for this chicken the acceptance that this was her lot. Oh no. No siree. This chicken was that rarest of birds, the 'glass half full' kind of chicken.

The kind of chicken that was prepared to cluck "damn it all!" and just roll the dice! A chicken who was prepared to take her chances in the greater world!

The kind of chicken who believed there might just be a brighter future and improved grain supplies on the other side of that road.

You don't see chickens like that very often. God bless that chicken. We salute her and cross the road in her honour.

Good lord πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

:LOLS:

But its ALL about the journey, no? Bad ass chooks know this ... and make the treacherous journey across the road to the other side to BECOME the bad asses they were always destined to be. Its a coming of age thing.

Causing multiple car crash pile-up seemed like a nice weekend diversion.

Because the objects 'chicken' and 'road' had the possibility 'crossing' encoded into them and a set of circumstances arose that enabled this potential event to be actualised.

(It's finding things like this that makes me appreciate the existence of google)

As any description of the event 'crossing' is entirely relative (dependent upon the choice of reference frame used to describe it), it is possible to envisage a set of co-ordinates from the point of view of the road in which the chicken is virtually static.

From this basis if the road possessed any non-trivial velocity, the road would would in effect be crossing the chicken.

This only adds to the initial confusion. If there is no such thing as universal time how can any firm definitions of spatial measurement be employed?

What does the concept 'measurement' mean to an infinitesimally low velocity chicken?

bloated by a certain sense of existential despair, this was no ordinary ninja. No! for this ninja the acceptance that this was her allotment. This ninja was that rarest of warriors, the 'holy hand grenade' kind of ninja.

The kind of ninja that was prepared to mutter "damn it all!" and just roll the dominoes! A ninja who was prepared to take her chances in the greater world!

The kind of ninja who believed there might just be a brighter future and improved ronin supplies on the other side of that road.

You don't see ninja like that very often. God bless that ninja. We salute her and cross our swords in her honour.

Frankly, I don't think the chicken gives a damn what we think about its road-crossing motivations. :?

An ibex (plural ibex, ibexes or ibices)
is any of several species of wild goat
(genus Capra), distinguished by the
male's large recurved horns, which
are transversely ridged in front. Ibex
are found in Eurasia, North Africa and
East Africa. The name ibex comes from
Latin, borrowed from Iberian or Aquitanian,
akin to Old Spanish bezerro "bull", modern
Spanish becerro "yearling". Ranging in
height from 70 to 110 centimetres
(27Γ’β‚¬β€œ43 in) and weighing 90 to 120
kilograms (200Γ’β‚¬β€œ270 lb), ibex can live
20 years. Two closely related varieties
of goats found in the wild are not usually
called ibex: the markhor and the feral goat.

"Killing in the Name" is a folk song
by the Appalachian folk band
Mages Against Machines, and is
on their 1902 self-titled debut album.

It was released as the lead single
From the album in November 1902.
It features heavy drop-D banjo riffs,
and lyrics inspired by the Pinkerton
brutality suffered by noted anarchist
Abraham Mosher and the subsequent
1902 South Boston riots. Mountains?
