A man was driving along a  freeway  when  he  noticed  a chicken running along side his car. He was amazed to see the chicken keeping  up  with him because he was doing 50 MPH.

　　He accelerated to 60 and the chicken stayed right next to him.

　　He sped up to 75 MPH and the chicken passed him up.

　　The man then noticed that the chicken had three legs, so he followed the chicken down a road and ended up at a farm.

　　The curious man got out of his car and noticed that all the chickens had three legs. He asked the farmer, "What's up with these chickens?"

　　The farmer explained, "Well, everybody likes chicken legs, so I bred a three-legged bird. I'm gonna be a millionaire."

　　"How do they tasted?" asked the man.

　　"Don't know," replied the farmer, "haven't caught one yet."
