Found this on the Internets. Why DID the chicken cross the road?

BARACK OBAMA: The chicken crossed the road because it was time for a 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.
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 there only white chickens here? 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 stu *id 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.
NANCY GRACE: That chicken crossed the road because he's guilty! You can see it in his eyes and the way he walks.
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? Did he cross it with a hare ? Did he cross it with a bear? Did he check if the road was hot? I kinda doubt it, I think not! ! Yes, the chicken crossed the road, but why it crossed, I've not been told. Just one more thing I have to say, it's been bugging me to this very day. If the Chicken is a she, why do we keep saying HE?
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.
ALBERT EINSTEIN: Did the chicken really cross the road, or did the road move beneath the chicken?
COLONEL SANDERS: Did I miss one?

a land more kind than home Craft Essay Jane Ellen Smith First Semester 11/04/2014 The use of dialogue to create a sense of place and characterization In a land more kind than home Wiley Cash has given us a window into the family- centric, lesser educated-world of rural North Carolina and much of Appalachia. He tells the story of a small church that’s been overrun by a self-proclaimed, charismatic preacher who practices snake-handling and poison drinking as evidence of his being filled with the Holy Spirit. Three narrators give us their accounts--a young boy whose brother dies, an older woman who tries to protect the children of the church, and the sheriff, almost an outsider. Cash uses the native speech patterns and colloquialisms of his characters to help his readers see and hear the North Carolina hills. Many writers believe the best way to demonstrate the relaxed speech of Southerners is to drop the g s at the end of words in an effort to duplicate the softening of wor...

Thoughts on overcomers--in progress

I started highlighting the word "overcomes" in Revelation when I first started the book. This is my attempt to find the significance of the word. I've copied my notes below. Any stray letters come from the kitten sitting on the keyboard. Revelation: He who overcomes will receive... NASB In Reformed Theology, the theology of R.C. Sproul, Calvin, and Luther, Scripture should be interpreted in three ways: by Scripture itself, remembering that all Scripture, OT and NT, point towards Christ, from a Redemptive Historical viewpoint: no longer, already, not yet Words in italics are strictly my thoughts about the following scriptures. 2:7 (Jesus speaking) "To him who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes , (false teaching/practices) I will grant to eat of the tree of life which is in the Paradise of God ." (everlasting life in Paradise...

15 minutes

Maybe men are only good in 15 minute segments. Good sex, compassion, eye contact, laughter, conversation. Maybe that's all we get. 15 minutes of good, a lifetime of good enough to get us through. February 20, 2013
