HB, Skeptico
Skeptico is observing its first birthday with a teasing post in a satirical (but not mocking, or offensive, or disrespectful, or blasphemous, nononono) vein. Views on why the poultry traversed the highway, in the style of various people – James Randi, our dear friend Sylvia Browne, Deepak Chopra, Prince Chuck, and many more. I’m there, being predictable as usual. [curtsies politely]
Aaaaahahahaha! Thanks!

I think Mad Magazine did one of the best takes on this one, a few years back. It was a parody of the BC comic, these 2 guys are standing in the desert and this chicken comes walking along, suddenly makes a 90 degree left, goes a little way, makes a 90 degree right and continues as it had before, and then one of the guys says, “Okay, we’ll put the road there.”
Glad you appreciated the joke. I’m quite a fan of your writing, btw.
