If you've seen this before, I apologize. It just came in my e-mail, and I was quite amused -
quote:Subject: Perspectives of the Famous and Infamous....So, 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. Our side of the road is the right side of the road and the chicken is either against us or for us. There is no middle ground for any chicken.
COLIN POWELL Now to the left of the screen, you can clearly see the satellite image of the chicken crossing the road.
DONALD RUMSFELD I have known about the chicken crossing the road for several months. I was investigating why the chicken moved but didn't feel it was necessary to alert anyone.
HANS BLIX We have reason to believe there is a chicken, but we have not yet been allowed to have access to the other side of the road.
JOHN KERRY Although I voted to let the chicken cross the road I am now against it!
RALPH NADER The chicken's habitat on the other side of the road had been polluted by unchecked industrial greed. The chicken did not reach the unspoiled habitat on the other side of the road because it was crushed by the wheels o f a gas-guzzling SUV.
PAT BUCHANAN To steal the job of 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 that somebody 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 road for chickens to cross.
MARTHA STEWART No one called me 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 inside information.
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. Somebody told us the chicken crossed the road, and that was good enough.
BARBARA WALTERS Isn't that interesting? In a few moments, we will be listening to the chicken tell, for the first time , the heartwarming story of how it experienced a serious case of molting, and went on to accomplish its life long dream of crossing the road.
JOHN LENNON Imagine all the chickens in the world crossing roads together - in peace.
ARISTOTLE It is the nature of chickens to cross the road.
KARL MARX It was a historic inevitability.
CAPTAIN KIRK To boldly go where no chicken has ever gone before.
BILL GATES I have just witnessed eChicken2004, which will not only cross roads, but will lay eggs, file your important documents, and balance your checkbook, and Internet Explorer is an integral part of eChicken.
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 is your definition of chicken?
AL GORE That was my chicken! I invented the chicken.
COLONEL SANDERS Did I miss one?

We have had this before, but my favourite one is Frodo
FRODO: I will take the chicken across the road, although I do not know the way.

The John Kerry and the Martha Stewart are new, aren't they?
