At last, it is time for us to discuss a question that has long been pondered by the greatest minds the world has ever known. Who knows, perhaps one of us may even solve this long lasting puzzle. Why did the chicken cross the road?

Either searching for food, or returning to her chicks with food.

Don't talk about my boss that way! He's not a chicken killer! He just hires them.
Right. It could also be that the chicken looked both ways and deemed the road safe to cross. Or the chicken was committing suicide.

Or maybe the chicken was confused and thought the other side was greener! :-P

Becasue the chicken ALWAYS walked that route.. then some idiot came along and built a road there.

I have no idea. We could go on forever postulating the whys, whens and hows.. but in the end I think the only real answer I can think of is.. "Because it wanted to"

Maybe it was forced, ever think of that?
Also, a possible explanation could be that the muscular contractions in its legs pushed one foot off the ground then the other one against the ground and backwards and then alternated. The force of friction caused the chicken to be propelled forward, across the road.

It never says that the chicken crossed the road on its own power either. Maybe someone threw it across the road, or it was carried...

Dang.. I have to go and rethink this conundrum.

It was the all powerful "They." Whoever "They" are, "Them's" did it.
