Speaking of eggs This might be rather obvious but when people say "what came first the chicken or the egg?" isn't it obviously the egg because dinosaurs laid eggs and chickens supposedly evolved from them, I mean surely that is the answer? right?

This is indeed an interesting theory Pliny Darwin. But since I am wearing my purple special fluffy socks and eating Angel Delight I'm afraid I don't really care. But since you asked, I would say that neither the chicken nor the egg came first as chickens and eggs are both metaphysical concepts that in no way shape or form make them entirely tangible.

that's what I always say, but some people don't see the obvious like that. The other one that annoys me is "if i tree falls in a forest when there's no-one around, does it make a sound?" "of course it bloody does, why wouldn't it?"
Pliny The Younger- 03-25-2006
ah but surely sound is but a perception with no physical attributes, unlike a hen or an egg (metaphysical indeed), it is merely the vibration of particles hitting an ear drum, really we could be asking when does the vibration of particles become sound, before or after hitting an ear drum?

if you were there the falling tree would not make a noise because it knew you were listening, it just would.

I made chocolate fudge browies yesterday and used 1 medium egg.
Pliny The Younger- 03-30-2006
Ah well its only aqn egg...
CressLover- 03-30-2006
An egg is an egg is an egg.
I'm curious about something....what is the square root of egg?
Pliny The Younger- 03-31-2006
Hen?
CressLover- 03-31-2006
Hmmmm, maybe.
It's a tricky one. Ineggsplicable even.

Eggsactly my thoughts, like the number of pies a baker must bake in a universe filled with pie eating people who hold the population of our world times pi
keir- 04-01-2006
is he baking pie pies?
Pliny The Younger- 04-02-2006
Only on Pie Pie day, but thats like pie pie day here multiplied to the average of our worlds population multiplied again by pi. Because they all like pies!
