Well, Pete, it depends on which dialect of Chickenese you mean. Most dialects use one cluck to mean both 'guilty' or 'not-guilty'. You have to look at the context and inflection to get the full meaning. Chickenese is a very subtle language, and the nuances require an innate skill. It is this skill which allows me to know precisely what Alan Greenspan means each time he speaks. And boy, would you be frightened if you had that knowledge! TLC

JUMPER AND PETE M. HAVE ANOTHER BENDER As mammals often do during the holidays, our two heros have decided to overindulge in the holiday spirits. We join our heros just as the spirits are wearing off.... JUMPER: Oooh, where are we? PETE M.: Ow, my head feels like a BK hit it.<-g-> I think we are in a trash dumpster. JUMPER: What happened? PETE M.: Last thing I remember, we were drinking egg nogs at your Aunt Gertrude's. That was... looking at watch three days ago! JUMPER: Why does my arm hurt? PETE M.: Mine does too...rolling up sleeve Hey! I got a tattoo! JUMPER: I got one, too. What does yours say? PETE M.: Mine says, "PK is a Myth" <g>, I think they mis-spelled the 'BK'. JUMPER: Mine says, "I Brake for Dipsters" <-g->. PETE M.: Well, as soon as this trash dumpster stops spinning, we can climb out and go get these tattoos removed. JUMPER: Heck, no! I like mine.<g> PETE M.: Maybe I can just have them correct the spelling on mine.<g> JUMPER: Pete, I don't remember anything that happened, do you? PETE M.: I remember placing some orders with my broker... I might want to check into that.<-g-> But, other than that, it's all a blank. JUMPER: Pete, why are you wearing my pants? end
