I just came across this piece of chicken related news from the USA (where else?)......
"Forty-year-old Frederick McKaney, from Jackson, Michigan, pleaded guilty to a count of felonious assault after being accused of stabbing his own mother with a fork and attacking another woman with ten pounds of frozen poultry while riding a stolen pedal cycle. The allegation is that he hit the woman in the head with a bag of frozen chicken, opening a wound that needed five surgical staples to close. McKarney will be sentenced in December. He faces a $2,000 fine and up to four years in prison"
In England this case would have defended much more robustly.................
"My client admits that he legally purchased the said items whilst en route to a friends BBQ............. He then erroneously selected a bicycle that closely resembled his own (apart from the colour, size and make) from outside the store as he left............. He was then approached by this unfortunate lady who he believed was about to steal from him the chicken which was legally his! In order to defend himself he took immediate proactive action to render his 'would be' assailant incapacitated...............
At this point........following a violent struggle (which drained my client considerably)........ and who by now was also.........
.........overcome with severe hunger........
...........his mother unfortunately appeared on the scene......
......... dressed as a chicken!"
Tallyho!

Just discovered your blog it has me rolling with laughter perfect for the start of another weeks work. Many thanks :-))
By the way maybe the chiken crossed the road because it was packed in a plastic bag and had no choice?
Aha! I love your logic! Similar to my own......... I've decided that when I die I want to be frozen and put in a plastic bag so someone can use me to beat the living daylight out of someone they don't like!......The perfect way to recycle yourself!
