Of which I'm one :-) I love that! Of course, the essential dichotomy of chickens means:
1. Heavy artillery fire, destructive shelling, immediate loss of life, noise, flame and death = Chicken in zen-like state of acceptance and mild irritation.
2. Owner walks past peaceful chicken enclosure on silent allotment with large piece of cardboard = Chickens catapault around pen as though painful and messy death imminent, squawking, shrieking and generally making a Big Fuss.
I'm betting Benghazi chicken promptly laid an egg and wandered off looking perplexed...
