.........So true!! We can early vote this week and end our oppression of the trials of an election

Subject: Why did the chicken cross the road: Political debate. Why did the chicken cross the road? BARACK OBAMA : The chicken crossed the road because it was time for change! The chicken wanted change! JOHN MC CAIN: My friends, that chicken crossed the road because he recognized the need to engage in cooperation and dialogue with all the chickens on the other side of the road. SARAH PALIN: The chicken had to cross the road because he was not able to find a bridge. Alaskans do not build bridges to nowhere. If he wanted a bridge, he'd have to build it himself. HILLARY CLINTON : When I was First Lady, I personally helped that little chicken to cross the road. This experience makes me uniquely qualified to ensure right from Day One that every chicken in this country gets the chance it deserves to cross the road. But then, this really isn't about me. 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 against us, or for us. There is no middle ground here. DICK CHENEY : Where's my gun? COLIN POWELL : Now to the left of the screen, you can clearly see the satellite image of the chicken crossing the road. BILL CLINTON : I did not cross the road with that chicken. What is your definition of chicken? AL GORE: I invented the chicken. JOHN KERRY : Although I voted to let the chicken cross the road, I am now against it! It was the wrong road to cross, and I was misled about the chicken's intentions. I am not for it now, and will remain against it. AL SHARPTON : Why are all the chickens white? We need some black chickens. DR. PHIL : The problem we have here is that this chicken won't realize that he must first deal with the problem on this side of the road before it goes after the problem on the other side of the road. What we need to do is help him realize how stupid he's acting by not taking on his current problems before adding new problems. OPRAH: Well, I understand that the chicken is having problems, which is why he wants to cross this road so bad. So instead of having the chicken learn from his mistakes and take falls, which is a part of life, I'm going to give this chicken a car so that he can just drive across the road and not live his life like the rest of the chickens. ANDERSON COOPER, CNN: 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. NANCY GRACE : That chicken crossed the road because he's guilty! You can see it in his eyes and the way he walks. PAT BUCHANAN : To steal the job of a decent, hardworking American. 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 insider 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. 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 heart warming story of how it experienced a serious case of molting, and went on to accomplish its lifelong dream of crossing the road. ARISTOTLE : It is the nature of chickens to cross the road. JOHN LENNON: Imagine all the chickens in the world crossing roads together, in peace. BILL GATES : I have just released eChicken2008, which will not only cross roads, but will lay eggs, file your important documents, and balance your checkbook. Internet Explorer is an integral part of eChicken2008. This new platform is much more stable and will never reboot. ALBERT EINSTEIN : Did the chicken really cross the road, or did the road move beneath the chicken? COLONEL SANDERS : Did I miss one?

..............I know for a fact that certain liquors will have different effects on certain people. I have witnessed where a normal person, who can handle almost all kinds of liquor will get a bit crazy on Tequila. There is nothing civilized about 'real' bikers.

.........There is a way out, the goat always skirts these never ending cliffhangers! I mean it is dark they could break apart before anyone happens upon them, thereby avoiding discovery! Brandon will have to confess to Chase, but with Eric's groveling before his brother and swearing off tequila for forever. Chase will see it as an unlikely misguided adventure concocted with booze and injury. BTW, the title 'Dance with the Devil' me thinks refers to two red eyes that were seen close to the barn, and we all know who those belong to.

...........No, trials and tribulations for the band? Yes, but they have been there and done that before. So I see no end to the band, is CJ too slow in bringing on the element of un-content surprise? Has the villain made his temperance too late? Not surprising since few readers had predicted it to happen ( chokes, thank-you ). So as I see it. the next chapter has to be a real clifhanger with many aspects going on at once. (In otherwords, we need his Shadowyness's influence on this chapter)

...........'sigh' I guess I'll have to buy a bottle to find out, I'll let ya'll know!!

.............Very fast moving chapter, The kiss well was just a kiss, but I still think that Rick isn't gay. The big surprise was Ricks admission to Brandon. It may leave him something for Rick to fall back on, if things get too messy for him. A great chapter Graeme, I waiting to see how he worms his way out of this situation.

...............That about sums my take on it also.

.........I suppose

.........Someone mentioned here I think in this thread about looking at what appeared to be as a young bird stretching out of as nest!! I LMAO,

............To be honest, been there done that, the entire clean look was a bit too much, trimmed and a bit clean is ok.

........Acckkk! Talk about an awkward situation, I do hope Chase isn't amoungst the 'search party'. Another cliffhanger, from our esteemed King of Cliffhangers!!!!!!!

.....Wine!! What wine would be good with a roasted goat?

..........I was most intrigued by; "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair ..." But alas I got 10/13!

..............Wow, Steve you came on strong in the the end. Even though the story is not complete, I still read Will as a cop, never gave it a thought as him being a lawyer, but it would be better for Nate & Sophie if he was, makes better sense to add to the story line. Miss Emma has yet to play her hand in this card game, Bran has laid his out and is waiting for Will, who is waiting for Sophie. The game goes on!

........Try suckling

.....................

...........Humm! The goat is giving us an insight perhaps?? And his Shadowyness has passed on blessing's?? Should make an interesting chapter. Provided the goat has no input, nor the Shadow has any cliffdwelling moments.

...........'sigh' ......... only you and I remember this??

.......Ah, made it to 2,000. Congrats to you James!
