Chicken Little:  a Tale of the Millennium

Chicken Little was innocently surfing the ‘net one day when he came across something he had never heard of before: Y2K. As he read the web page at www.endoftheworld.com he became more and more frightened. He downloaded the file and e-mailed it to his friend’s address hennypenny@aol.com in the hope that he would be of some help.

Henny Penny was sitting in his office sipping his frappuccino when he got the message. He practically spit his drink all over his new flat screen monitor. Frantically he forwarded the message to his girlfriend Ducky Lucky. Her beeper went off in the middle of her office meeting to alert her of the urgent message. She excused herself from the meeting and checked her mail. As soon as she read the message she started hyperventilating. When she calmed herself down she faxed the message to her lesbian lover Goosey Loosey who was recovering from a hangover. She awoke to realize that she was in bed with her cousin, Turkey Lurkey. Boy, did she get drunk that night! She showed him the fax and they both stumbled out of bed to go show their pimp Foxy Loxy the terrible news.

When he saw this he suggested they round up a bunch of people to demonstrate down at city hall as to why the government didn’t tell them about it and to alert all the unsuspecting population of the problem.

Chicken Little, Henny Penny, Ducky Lucky, Goosey Loosey, Turkey Lurkey, Foxy Loxy and about 50 others were at city hall the following day demonstrating. It was all going well until the cops showed up. One of the cops tried to put handcuffs on Foxy Loxy. Foxy Loxy inquired why he was being arrested because this had been a peaceful demonstration. But the cop just continued to read him his rights, so Foxy Loxy punched the cop. As soon as this happened the entire crowd started fighting off the cops. A few minutes later the S.W.A.T. team showed up and released tear gas into the crowd, which by this time was around 300 people. Slowly the crowd dispersed and all that was left were the cops and our 6 troublemakers, who were soon arrested. As the cars drove off with them to the police station to be booked Chicken Little could be heard screaming “Can’t we all just get along?”
