At best, I would need 37 chickens to pay for my checkup. Now, all I need is for someone to help me carry 37 live chickens onto the NYC subway. Any takers?

23. My favorite episode by far
Is the one where Brian takes Meg to the dance and she becomes obsessed with him. "She made me eat her hair pie." I laugh just thinking about it.

At least not until they've hatched. :D

6. And you would have to pay in installaments
Since you would not want to put them all in one basket.

But the chicken is harder to catch.

7. Chickens that can count bring more, you might only need two or three of that
variety. On the other hand, if they can count they may be able to give you a checkup... saving you the trip.

14. Your math is fuzzy--you only need 18 1/2 chickens
'Cause, as we all know, a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush . . . :)

19. that's a lot of chickens
and I'm sure that the doc would appreciate them being "dressed out"...most doctors don't have facilities to hold all these live chickens coming their way!

25. We actually paid our family doctor with wild pork
When I was a kid in the 70's. Pretty cool doc. Wonder what would happen if I brought half a pig into Kaiser for payment. Better wrap it first.

28. As long as your doctor isn't Jewish or Muslim
Or if you're doctor is Hindu, you probably wouldn't want to bring a cow in.
