Why, again, are they promoting the movie "Chicken Little" so many many months after it's DVD release? (confuzion)

My 5 year old son totally disagrees. According to him, the chicken had to have been created first - if the egg came first there would be no chicken to keep the egg warm and it wouldn't hatch. It's hard for me to argue with that.

Now who are you gonna believe? :-)

Mike: I'm going to believe your five year old, as if my six-year-old would've come up with that explanation, I would've not ever have argued with her.

I've been saying that forever too...

Reptiles laid eggs way before birds did; basically the chicken was fruit of evolution that came from an egg layed by a reptile.
