It seems the United States`s FAA has a unique device for testing windshield strength on airplanes.

It is a gun that fires a dead chicken at a plane's windshield at about the same speed the plane flies.

The theory is that if the windshield doesn't crack from the impact, it could survive a real collision with a bird during flight.

The British wanted to test the device on a new highspeed locomotive they are developing, so they borrowed the FAA's chicken launcher, loaded a chicken, and fired.

The bird not only shattered the windshield, but also went through the engineer's chair, broke an instrument panel and embedded itself in the back wall of the engine cab.

The stunned Brits asked the FAA to re-check the procedure to see if they had missed something.

The FAA reviewed the test thoroughly and came back with just one recommendation.

At the local zoological park, there worked a very old keeper.

He had worked at the zoo for so long, he had only two responsibilities.

The first was to care for the zoo's male lion.

This lion was so magnificent, the Governor had proclaimed it the state lion.

The second was to care for the zoo's porpoise.

This porpoise had lived at the zoo for years.

In fact, nobody knew exactly how old the porpoise was, and everyone simply called it the immortal porpoise.

It was thought that the secret to the porpoise's long life was its daily diet of young gulls, fed to it by the zookeeper.

Well, one day the keeper came into work and went down to the dock to collect the gulls to feed the porpoise.

At the dock, he saw the lion (*who had escaped from his cage during the night*) stretched out across the dock, asleep.

Panicking slightly, the zookeeper decided to creep quietly across the lion, get the gulls, feed the porpoise and then get help to capture the lion.

So, he carefully stepped over the lion and filled his bucket full of the young gulls.

As he carefully crossed back over the lion.....he was arrested!!!!

He was caught crossing the state lion, with young gulls, for an immortal porpoise!!

The road symbolizes the barrier presented by the cultural taboo.

What's all this talk about chicken?

My aunt almost divorced him, but we needed the eggs.

Howard Cosell: It may very well have been one of the most astonishing events to grace the annals of history.

An historic, unprecedented avian biped with the temerity to attempt such an herculean achievement formerly relegated to homo sapien pedestrians is truly a remarkable occurrence.

**Plato**: For the greater good.

**Robert Frost:** To cross the road less traveled by.

**Aristotle:** To fulfill its nature on the other side.

**Karl Marx:** It was an historical inevitability.

**Machiavelli:** So that its subjects will view it with admiration, as a chicken which has the daring and courage to boldly cross the road, but also with fear, for who among them has the strength to contend with such a paragon of avian virtue?

In such a manner is the princely chicken's dominion maintained.

**Hippocrates:** Because of an excess of light pink gooey stuff in its pancreas.

**Jacques Derrida**: Any number of contending discourses may be discovered within the act of the chicken crossing the road, and each interpretation is equally valid as the authorial intent can never be discerned, because structuralism is **DEAD, DEAD, DEAD!**

**Thomas de Torquemada:** Because of Satan's influence.

Crossing the road is heresy.

The chicken must confess to its sins in order to be saved.

I'll call another Inquisition.

**Timothy Leary**: Because that's the only kind of trip the Establishment would let it take.

**Nietzsche:** Because if you gaze too long across the Road, the Road gazes also across you.

**Oliver North**: National Security was at stake.

In the rain.

**Gilligan**: The traffic started getting rough; the chicken had to cross.

If not for the plumage of its peerless tail the chicken would be lost.

The chicken would be lost!

**E.O. Wilson:** Under the influence of a road-crossing gene, selected because it conferred a survival advantage in the chicken's ancestral line.

We could conjecture, for example, that crossing roads represents the transfer of a behavioral trait whereby some chickens sought to distance themselves from rivals, thereby distinguishing them in the eyes of potential mates and increasing their reproductive potential.

**Sir Edmund Hillary**: Because it was there.

**Werner Heisenberg:** We are not sure which side of the road the chicken was on, but it was moving very fast.

**Pyrrho the Skeptic**: What road?

**Henry David Thoreau**: To live deliberately ... and suck all the marrow out of life.

**Ayn Rand**: It was crossing the road because of its own rational choice to do so.

There cannot be a collective unconscious; desires are unique to each individual.

**Mishima:** For the beauty of it.

The chicken's extension of its sinuous legs sent shivers of a dark despair into the souls not only of the silently watching hens but also the roosters, who felt a sudden sexual desire for their exquisite comrade.

The dark courage of the chicken was as beautiful as drops of dew upon jade at midnight, struck by a partial moon, its light filtered through clouds.

One of the deeply aroused roosters could stand the intensity of the moment no more and bit off the head of the beautiful, courageous chicken-hero, whose wine blood was deliciously drunken by the road, and he died.

**Johnny Cochran:** The chicken never crossed the road.

Some chicken-hating, genocidal, lying public official moved the road right under the chicken's feet while he was practicing his golf swing and thinking about his family.

**Camus:** The chicken's mother had just died.

But this did not really upset him, as any number of witnesses can attest.

**William Shakespeare:** Tell me where lies fancy's egg, in the breast or in the leg?

**Douglas MacArthur**: In order to return.

**Richard Nixon:** This isn't about roads and chickens.

I don't think you quite understand that what you believe I may have meant isn't what you think I said.

**Book of Genesis:** God said, ***"Let there be chicken"; and there was chicken.***

Then God said, ***"Let there be road"***; and there was road.

And God commanded, "***Let the one be taken to the far side there of."***

And it was done.

And God looked upon his work and saw that it was good.

**Sirs William Gilbert and Arthur Sullivan:** To verify through measurement and research explorational, asserted widths and properties of highways transportational.

And thus through brain and intellect did prove itself, this animal, to be the very model of a modern chicken-general.

**Sophocles:** It wanted to be close to its mom.

And my favorite...
