Random question Thursday


nature's easter eggs, originally uploaded by toyfoto.


Which came first, the chicken or the egg?

E for evolution.

E for egg.

I say the egg.

There's another thing about eggs that has my brain cramping up: We women are born with all we're ever going to get. So that means a part of me was just hanging around during the entire existence of my mother, and a part of her was swimming around the entire life of her mother. So by extension (and the ability to suspend all disbelief) I may actually be as old as Methuselah.

Of course, I've been known to eggagerate one or 18,000 times.

Which do you think came first?

  2. Ha! I was trying to imagine from what eggs the chickens would have originated ... There could have been a chizzard way back when.
