The 'Chicken crossing the road' joke is a metaphor on the ability to see the obvious.
And that is important.

My chickens cross the road to eat the bugs under the leaves in the woods that is across the road.
Now those driving the road feel like they are playing chicken, and another one bites the dust.

Because its so unheard of? imagine driving along, minding your own business and suddenly a chicken crosses the road. weird! but then i do work in london, maybe if i lived in the country near farms it is an everyday thing!

It is so comfortingly archaic.
These days, the only thing a road-crossing chicken would have in mind is suicide!

Until he comes back and lets us know if the grass is greener on the other side.... we will remain concerned.

Nothing else to talk about. The cow hasn't jumped the moon for *ages*.
