The Cooler vs. The Age-Old Riddle

I think Elvis's gospel recordings are fantastic.

Can I just say I'm terribly amused by the overwhelming support McNuggest received in this poll?

The egg came first because its part of evolution maybe a bird had sex with a land animal, or a duck colony lived in a different environment alowing them to evolve or somthing like we have black people because they were so tanned all the time their young were born like that. Anyway the egg cam first.

 

[The_Doc_Man]

OK, guys - got THE DEFINITIVE chicken/egg answer.

Who came first? The chicken or the egg?

Answer: The ROOSTER. Have you ever seen him strut after laying the chicken that lays the egg? He knows HE came first. And that poor chicken lets him have his way with her, the poor dumb cluck!

So I should bleach my hair when pregnant if I want a blonde baby?

Thats not genetic. Plus it takes thousands of years for evolution to happen.

So getting a suntan changes one's DNA?

In a way yes, they had to be resistant to sun so over many years they slowly developed their genes to suit the environtment they were living in.

You're assuming that the first humans were white, and evolved to have darker skin. The truth is more likely the opposite of that.

Also, evolution works through natural selection, so traits are reinforced only if the individuals who possess them are more likely to live long enough to reproduce successfully.

 

[Greyowlsl]

So you have finished with your rhetorical questions.

But yes that is what i mean.

None know what skin colour the first humans were but if you go by the evolution theory they say that we come from apes meaning we can not have evolved into black people since apes are more jungle animals rather than african field animals. So they must have miagrated (this all happend before the continents were divided). Why do black people have white feet?

Humans did not evolve from apes. Humans and apes evolved independently from a common ancestor.

They must make black people differently in Australia from America - I've never seen a black person with white feet.

Well the foot souls and palms of our black people are white or whiter than the rest of them.

Well, everyone's palms and soles are lighter than their arms or legs. This proves what, exactly? Other than less exposure to the sun, I mean.

Yes,
and why are there many different colored eggs. I mean their color can range from deep brown to icy white. Apart from being popped out, eggs are not subjected to tanning by the sun ?

Well duh, you can tell what color eggs a hen will lay by the color of her eyelids. Don't you know anything?

Anyway you seem to have the upper hand in this disscusion so i think we should just settle it, and say your right . By the way the chicken and the rooster came first, they just appeared like adam and eve

 

[Ron_dK]

I hate to sound pedantic, but I thought that the egg color is related to the chicken's lobulus ( Oorlel in dutch, don't know the english word )

If in doubt, you might ask Erin, around the corner in Lansing

I think that eggs came first since there were eggs before chickens, but not chicken eggs
But would chicken have brains ?

Hmm to me a chicken is K.F.C, and an egg is a Bacon and Egg Mcmuffin. Since we eat breakfast first the egg must come first then to chicken... so i guess there is your answer

 

[Ron_dK]

Ehhh... nothing as good as chasing a butter chicken in the morning, catch it and eat it and leave the eggs for dinner.

but why did the chicken cross the road ?
