Mike did a bunch of characters and my favorite was O'Bradley O'Bradley - his tagline was fitting to chicken's quote above; "digging down deep to get to the bottom to stay on top." I have no idea why but that just tickles me and I never forget it. ;>

One of the clerks said "Like I think you just like broke the record for like reading and like totally thinking about each quote on the rack." She and another clerk started laughing and she said "Like I don't even know what half of those are like about." I smiled and said "If you understand, things are just as they are; if you do not understand, things are just as they are." I think they are both still standing there. It's a Zen saying, BTW. ;>
