reconfigure the warp field, realign the secondary phase inducers, and ...

Lwaxana
Oh, Jean-Luc!

Data
The chicken, in observing that it was on the opposite side
of the 20th century Terran paved roadway, was aware that
its immediate goal should have been to traverse the distance
without interception by any kind of combustion-propelled
transport vehicle, but I am unclear as to why any kind of
domesticated fowl should desire to perambulate upon a
conveyance normally reserved for the usage of . . . yes, sir.

Q
Wouldn't you like to know? .Too bad your silly excuses
for brains won't comprehend the answer.

The Borg
Crossing the road is futile.
The chicken will be assimilated.
