Totally random and insane... don't read if you think the above caps have been too silly....!

The chickens are going to eat us now, aren't they?

I wish the chickens had never come for me.
I wish none of this had happened...

So do all who live to see such chickens, but that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the chicken that has come for us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of chickens. Bilbo was meant to be eaten by a chicken, in which case you were also meant to be eaten by one. And that is an encouraging thought...

or, in the encouraging words of Gandalf, slightly changed yet again....

all you have to decide is how to cook the chicken with the stove that is given to you...
