William First Grade Homework Win Pre-Bed Last Eve

Round 3 Week 12
Wed.: KillerAbs & P90X Back and Biceps + Lawn Fill-in Day Three
Thu.: Lawn Fill-in Day Four

My dirt arrived late yesterday (Tue.) -- so, not much accomplished. Will hit it hard later today (Wed. and Thu.). Rocked KillerAbs then on to Back and Biceps, loving the pull-ups and the crazy reps on the ol' forearms and biceps. Week 12, solid.

Got this in my inbox from my sister-in-law Julie -- first one in the history of this blog that I thought was good enough to share. Lucky you!

WHY DID THE CHICKEN CROSS THE ROAD?

BARACK OBAMA: The chicken crossed the road because itwas time for a change! The chicken wanted change!

JOHN MCCAIN: My friends, that chicken crossed the roadbecause he recognized the need to engage in bipartisan cooperation and dialogue with all the chickens on the other side of the road.

HILLARY CLINTON: When I was First Lady, I personallyhelped that little chicken to cross the road. This experience makes me uniquely qualified to lead right from Day One! And ensure 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 chickencrossed 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 canclearly see the satellite image of the chicken crossing the road.

BILL CLINTON: I did not cross the road with that chick. What is your definition of chicken?

AL GORE: I invented the chicken.

JOHN KERRY: Although I voted to let the chicken crossthe 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 itnow, 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 sideof the road before it goes after the problem on the other sideof 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, hardworkingAmerican is what that chicken did.

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. (My favorite!)

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 eChicken 2008, 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 eChicken 2008. This new platform is much more stable and will never crash or need to be rebooted.

ALBERT EINSTEIN: Did the chicken really cross the road, or did the road move beneath the chicken?

COLONEL SANDERS: Did I miss one?
