Galadriel: He has passed into the west...

Why did the chicken cross the road?

Barliman: I don't rightly know, but Nob might. Where is that woolly-footed duffer?

Eowyn: Because he no longer desired death and winning renown.

Legolas: To find the sea... *dreamy eyes*

Gimli: To find his cousin Balin.

Nienor Niniel: To marry its immediate sibling! Oh, Eru! *leaps into Teiglin...again*

The Butcher: To get away from meeeee!!!!!! Ah, ha, ha, ha, ha!!!!!!!!!!!!

(Sorry, that last one just needed to be there)

Denethor: My chicken! Faramir should have gone in his stead.

(I'm a big Boromir fan, I felt guilty typing that!)

Faramir: Because Osgiliath is overrun. The orcs hold the Western Shore.

(more guilt!)

Gandalf: He must go by another road; he must look to the River, and the black fleet.

Aragorn: Because the Beacons are lit! Gondor calls for aid!

Theoden: Muster the chickens.

Eomer: Oaths he has taken, to lord and land!

Eowyn: The men have found their chicken; they will follow him into the frying pan, and into the fire.

Legolas: Have you learned nothing of the stubbornness of chickens?

Gimli: Never thought I'd die fighting side by side with a chicken.

Legolas: What about side by side with a pigeon?

Gimli: Yeah, they don't taste as good. I could do that.

~~~

Witch King: Fool! Do not come between the Nazgul and his chicken! Roost now!

~~~

Why did the chicken cross the road?

Faramir: NAZGUL!!!

Exactly.

I've been trying to think of another old saw for you, Master Mark, but nothing's come yet.

I hate to post twice in a row, but at least 'tis not thrice. 'Tis merely that Ungoliant's Dancing Spawn hath inspired me so...

Why didst thou chicken cross the road?

Theoden: Because he would not bring further death to his people.

Eowyn: He had no warning. He was unarmed. And now the wildmen are moving through the the Tyson Farms, burning as they go. Rick, cot, and chicken house...

Theoden(again): His leechcraft would have had me bobbing my head like a chicken!

(I'm from one of the US chicken capitals, so...yeah.)

But Boromir is not a chicken!

mark12_30 , is it time for a new old saw? Because if it is, I've got one for you:

Why do birds fly south?

Quite similar, huh?

Gandalf: Because I told him to fly, you fool!

(Thanks to Nilpaurion Felagund for this old saw... )

Thanks for the new old saw!

Lhunardawen, good idea. I'd been drawing a blank. Thanks for the new old saw.

Why do birds fly south?

Legolas: To the Sea, to the Sea...
