      <![CDATA[16 years ago, one day,
I was walking down the street
I was cruising in brooklyn
You know what I mean?
Something was cooking,
But wasn't yet a chicken.

There was a man,
Selling chicks in a box.
He said, 2 for 1, but 3 for 2.
I said, thats not bad,
Here's money for you.
One was magenta,
The other was blue.

I know my chicken
You got to know your chicken
I know my chicken
You got to know your chicken
I know my chicken
You got to know your chicken
I know my chicken

One day, the blue one went away.
The other grew up fuckin well.
She was noisy every night.
I had always chicken-bite.

Then I met a lover
One night, she made me dinner.
Licking finger, I wondered
Where she got the chicken.
Then I met a lover.
One night, she made me dinner.
Licking finger, I wondered
Where she got the chicken.

I know my chicken
You got to know your chicken
I know my chicken
You got to know your chicken
I know my chicken
You got to know your chicken
I know my chicken
You got to know your chicken

Spare the rod and spoil the chick
Before you go and shit a brick.
Spare the rod and spoil the chick
Before you go and shit a brick
Spare the rod and spoil the chick
Before you go and shit a brick
Spare the rod and spoil the chick
Before you go and shit a brick

I know my chicken
You got to know your chicken
I know my chicken
You got to know your chicken
I know my chicken
You got to know your chicken
I know my chicken
You got to know your chicken

She went to college to study anatomy
I followed her fathers butchery
We got 2 babies. is it cool?
One was magenta, the other was blue.

I know my chicken
You got to know your chicken
I know my chicken
You got to know your chicken
I know my chicken
You got to know your chicken
I know my chicken
You got to know your chicken
I know my chicken
You got to know your chicken...

      So, apparently I missed the day they were handing out free North Face fleeces.

I&apos;ve always noticed that a lot of people own this particular clothing item.  But today on the train it seemed like everyone was wearing theirs.  I suppose the weather is just about right for a fleece.  I suppose I&apos;ll have to make do with my inferior Izod fleece.

      <![CDATA[So I <a href="http://digg.com">dugg</a> up this article this morning and had to say I was surprised:

<a href="http://www.environmentalgraffiti.com/green-living/free-ride-the-five-best-mass-transit-systems-worldwide/1095">The 5 Best Mass Transit Systems in the World</a>

I was surprised to see Chicago in the top 5.  Really!!??  Ask anybody who's been riding the L for the past couple of years and I'm sure they'd disagree.  Between the construction and poor service, it's been a little rough for commuters.  But maybe we've gotten spoiled over the years.  I'll admit, the train system in Chi-Town has served me well over the years.  And now I just realized that I've been living in the city for almost 10 years now. If you'd asked me ten years ago, I'd have though I'd be in the burbs somewhere with a wife and kids and maybe even a dog.  But I digress.  So are public transportation systems in other cities that bad that we rank in the top 5?  I guess we'll have to see what people say if we get the Olympics in 2016.  I'll be telecommuting that summer.]]>

It was kinda nice to see her remind people that she is actually black.  Maybe all this recent talk about race will actually move people toward having a real dialog about it without fear of the political correctness police.  I think that's the only way that we're going to get past it in this country.  However, one thing that definitely ticks me off is people who want to ignore the problem or speak as if there is no problem.  It's usually someone who has not been affected by racism at all.  I don't want to point fingers but they usually fit a certain profile.  (Was that racist of me?)

Hope all 5 of you voted today.  A lot of people are excited about this election.  There were even 8 year olds handing out flyers near the school where my polling place is this morning.  OK, that's not  true, but you get the idea.]]>

      OK, now they&apos;ve jumped 10 years into the future and the body of the terminator that was trying to kill them in 1997 just happened to be laying around in a junkyard?

Ok, say you&apos;re investigating a bank robbery.  3 people have locked themselves inside the vault.  This guy shows up and walks inside and begins to tear the vault door apart.  His head gets blown off and it is revealed to be a robot instead of a man.  What happens to the robot?  It gets thrown into a junkyard.  WTF?

So now the head and body are reunited.  But how did the head make it to 2007 if nothing that isn&apos;t alive can&apos;t go through the time portal?
