Pulled over by a policeman in farm country, a pale, shaken driver who had been doing 85 was asked by the officer if he was ok. “I don’t know,” he responded. “I know I was speeding but you’ve got to hear me out. I was peering through my rearview mirror, when I saw an object racing behind me. As it got closer to me, I thought I saw a chicken. I sped up but the chicken was racing even faster than me. When it passed me and I saw that it had five legs, I thought I’m going nuts. I swear I wasn’t drinking.” “You can relax,” the officer told him. “You weren’t hallucinating. The chicken belongs to a local farmer. He, his wife and his children all like chicken legs, so he bred his chickens to have five legs.” Relieved, the driver asked the officer, “How do they taste?” “No one knows,” he said. “They haven’t been able to catch them.”
