Arrow FLINT discusses Poultry - as promised

CHICKEN? ROAD?
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 with us or it is against us. There is no middle ground here.

AL GORE
I invented the chicken. I invented the road. Therefore, the chicken crossing the road represented the application of these two different functions of government in a new, reinvented way designed to bring greater services to the American people.

RALPH NADER
The chicken's habitat on the original side of the road had been polluted by unchecked industrialist 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 a job from 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 someone 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 roads for chickens to cross.

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. Someone told us that the chicken crossed the road, and that was good enough for us.

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 onto accomplish its life-long dream of crossing the road.

JOHN LENNON
Imagine all the chickens crossing roads in peace.

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

KARL MARX
It was a historical inevitability.

SADDAM HUSSEIN
This was an unprovoked act of rebellion and we were quite justified in dropping 50 tons of nerve gas on it.

VOLTAIRE
I may not agree with what the chicken did, but I will defend to the death its right to do it.

RONALD REAGAN
What chicken?

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

FOX MULDER
You saw it cross the road with your own eyes! How many more chickens have to cross before you believe it?

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 released eChicken 2003, which will not only cross roads, but will lay eggs, file your important documents, and balance your checkbook- and Internet Explorer is an inextricable part of eChicken.

MARTHA STEWART
No one called 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.

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 do you mean by chicken? Could you define chicken, please?

THE BIBLE
And God came down from the heavens, and He said unto the chicken, "Thou shalt cross the road." And the chicken crossed the road, and there was much rejoicing.

COLONEL SANDERS
I missed one?


?Have I changed your plans for dinner. Have a blessed evening, from FLINT.

Well, I'm very disappointed. I was taken in by you FLINT. I really thought you were original.

FLINT is also disappointed in you. FLINT writes quite a bit of his own stuff as well as well as adapting, and in this case copying or embellishing commonly written things he receives from friends or loved ones. FLINT never believed or even intended anyone to credit him as the chicken joke author. This is neither here nor there. What disturbs FLINT even more....is the intention of the person(s) who attempt to go to such lengths to imply such. FLINT wonders what their motivation was? FLINT provides this material or writes it himself to provide joy in an otherwise not so joyful forum full of persons who insist on squabbling among themselves over petty arguments. FLINT wonders if such persons have a bit too much time on their hands and their lives are so bad that they have resorted to this.

FLINT is an investment banker, not an author, however FLINT did author quite a bit of information he sent here more or less as an experiment to learn a bit about the "on-line" world. FLINT is not overly impressed.

FLINT's intention was to write a number of articles on money topics to be helpful to those of this forum and thought this might be a nice place to pass the time now and then. FLINT has attempted to be a gentleman and kind even when he sees a lot of unkindness (for no reason) published in this forum.

FLINT has decided that this is a waste of time because he has better things to do than bicker with people intent on destroying each other.

To the lovely and nice people FLINT has met here, God bless you, and have a lovely life. FLINT adores you.

To comply with the wishes of those who seemed to want this result, consider FLINT an X-DOD member from this point forward.

Don't let a minority who has power influence FLINT's decision to leave. Many enjoy FLINT's post and could care less where FLINT gets FLINT's material. Some people would rather be critical than laugh. Please ignore them an continue posting FLINT!

I will be very saddened by this move by Flint. I enjoyed all the posts , original or not. I only said that one line of criticism? because I was surprised it was not all original as no quote references were given.

oh crap!

god i hate to see him leave. this was some of the best stuff i have ever seen at dod. i admit i came here every day just to see if he would post. i think most of the stuff was original because i have never seen it anywhere else. even his responses (which was the funniest part) had to be original because they were customized to the conversation. i think some people need to rethink the way they act because flint was always so so nice to everyone and never got into fighting. flint please keep writing here!

What line of criticism did you write? I read back through what you wrote and I didn't see any criticism from you? Only from luvmetender. Your post wasn't edited either, so you didn't delete anything.

Why are you taking ownership of what luvmetender wrote?

Sorry/ I did not mean to imply what I said caused Flint to quit us....just that I did say something and I was sorry - I said something about being surprised it was not original and that Flint should give credit to the author when he posts things. I think it is somewhat ironic that luvmetender says such abrasive stuff considering her "name" (she sure does not act loving or tender when making such comments as the one that drove Flint from us)

Before you all go jumping on me, go back and read the numerous other replies I've made to FLINT, all of which were positive. I even nominated him for member of the week which was in the process of being voted on by the other moderators.

I strongly feel that credit should be given to the OP when you are writing someones else's words. Even on the Internet deals board, credit is usually given to the OP if the poster found the deal on another board.

YES, I'm dissappointed. YES, I enjoyed FLINT's posts very much. Is it being critical to point out that those last two posts of his were, in fact, not his. I don't think so.
