Chicken All The Way
Friday, May 15, 2009
Last week we were treated by our caterer with what I call chicken-torture. And to justify my allegation of a chicken-torture, just imagine from Saturday to Thursday there are six lunches and out of six, we were treated with 4 chicken meals. When I opened my lunch box yesterday (Thursday), it’s chicken again. “Man, its chicken all the way”. I was so mad that I stared hard, so hard that the chicken got up and make a chicken-run for its life….Naaah!!!
This chicken cannot amuse me even if it did a chicken dance by the tune of “chicken all the way”. What choice I have but to take my chicken lunch. Though, I was smiling while having my lunch, not because I like my chicken but because I remember a joke about chicken. It was told by a Singaporean friend. As you should know Singapore is a chicken-rice crazy country.
Here is the joke.
A childhood friends, a boy and a girl, likes to eat chicken rice. In any given occasion, it is certain that they have chicken rice for breakfast, lunch or dinner.
If they go to school, their parents prepare them pack snacks, and guess what, its chicken. Chicken burger, chicken nuggets, chicken rolls, etc.
This has been their way from pre-school to grade school and until they finished their primary schooling. Nothing much had changed up to their secondary schooling. They still eat their chicken snacks together. Buy chicken rice for lunch. They also visit McDonalds or KFC during weekends.
One day, the girl suddenly stops eating chicken. And the boy was very surprised, and does not understand why. He approached his friend and asked why she doesn’t eat chicken anymore. It’s been their favorite since childhood, why she suddenly dislikes chicken.
The girl said, “All these years we’ve been eating chicken and something wrong is happening to me”. Still the boy cannot understand what his friend is trying to tell him.
The girl said, “Come, I’ll show you something”. They went to a secluded place and the girl showed her friend what she was worried about. “You see this, because of so much eating chicken, I am growing feathers”, showing her private part to her friend. The boy said, “It can’t be the chicken”. Then they start arguing and parted their ways without resolving their argument.
A few weeks past, the boy called the girl. He said she was right and he also stops eating chicken. The girl asked what happen. The boys said that he wants to show her something.
And so they met and the boy showed what he wanted to show to his friend. The girl was very surprised, she said, “Whooaa!!! Your case is worst than mine, you don’t only have feathers, you also have gizzard!”

Recalling the above joke over and over, I didn’t notice I already finished my chicken lunch. I hope it won’t grow me some feather or gizzard for that matter.
