Why did the chicken cross the road?
Because it is a truth universally acknowledged that a single chicken, being possessed of a good fortune and presented with a good road, must be desirous of crossing.

Ahoo! That's hysterical. I like the Mrs. Elton one. What a goofy character. :) What a funny idea of things to make a list for. Have a good evening, lady! ;) XO, Me
Well, that's pretty great. Whoever came up with it is a total genius!
I like this a lot :) Its true that Jane Austen comes up with the most maddening characters! I like the Chicken crossing joke... I should post some on my blog... ha ha!
Man, no kidding about marrying Mr. Collins. I mean...seriously. Way to be, Charlotte. *shakes head*
I think for P&P to truly end happily, Mr. Collins should've...melted. Like the Wicked Witch of the West.
Yeah... ugh.
Hey! I even know who all those characters are, having read at least part of all their prospective books. I'm reading Persuasion right now. How did you like Pride and Prej, Cowee? Is Mr. Collins your new role model?
#21 - Carride with Yanni in the frontseat, in the middle of the summer, and a broken air conditioner. Yanni alone would drive me to insanity before the overheating car. And I am not the only one from Seattle that shares this view. And don't any of you ever even entertain the idea of purchasing a ticket for me for one of his concerts. I have ways of seeking retribution...
