OK,HERES THE SCOOP
I'LL TELL IT NOW,SO I CAN DO SOME WORK
I'M ON MY WAY TO WORK.I LIVE IN S.I,BUT WORK IN B'KLYN.
PICTURE THIS,SICILY,1936......WAIT WRONG STORY.
I AM IN MY CAR ON MY WAY TO WORK.I DROP MY WIFE AT THE FERRY,THAN PROCEED DOWN BAY ST. TO V-Z BRIDGE. AS I START TO APPROACH THE TOLL BOOTH,I NOTICE A TRUCK COME FROM THE HIGHWAY,IN FRONT OF ME IN THE MIDDLE LANE. I'M ABOUT 2 CAR LENGHTS BEHIND HIM IN THE RIGHT LANE.
NOW IT'S STILL DARK,SO I DIDN'T NOTICE WHAT KIND OF TRUCK IT WAS OR WHAT IT WAS CARRYING UNTILL I GET A LITTLE CLOSER TO IT.
O.K.....NOW I'M TAKING A BETTER LOOK,BECAUSE THIS GUY IS REALLY MOVING.
YIKES,TO MY SUPRISE AND AMAZEMENT,I REALIZE IT'S ONE OF THOSE FLATBED TRUCKS THAT CARRIES LIVE CHICKENS IN THOSE WOODEN CAGES. MAN ,THIS GUY IS FLYING AND HE HAS ALL THESE BIRDS ON THE BACK OF HIS TRUCK.
NOW........I LOOKING,AND.........HOLY SHIT........THERES A CHICKEN,A BIG ONE,(OVEN STUFFER)...........LOOSE...OUT OF IT'S CAGE......ON THE BACK OF THIS TRUCK.....RUNNING BACK AND FORTH.
OH MAN,I GOT TO GET THIS GUYS ATTENTION AND TELL HIM.
I'M THINKING TO MYSELF,"this chicken is going to fall off..........and just as that thought is going thru my head.......guess what.......the f-ing truck hits a bump,the poor bird is flappin around on one leg....falls right in front of my car.......i here a"ba-buff"...... and see nothing but feathers in my mirror blowing along the roadway.
now,i don't know what to do.
do i tell the driver when we get off the bridge,do i call the police?
well,i did nothing except continue on to work
after all,who would believe,that i ran over a chicken,in n.y.c. on the verrazano bridge....i wouldn't dare to even try.
true story......you can't make this stuff up.
