A dog watches a squirrel walk across a telephone wire and explode, the premise of all science fiction movies is ruined, the cute blond girl at the record store turns out to be a major pothead and a planet killing comet is heading towards the Earth. All of this is witnessed by Casper Cornbregger in just the first chapter of Why Did the Chicken Cross the Universe?

Casper and the residents of Pepper Mill, California become the bullseye of the world, as an impending apocalypse flip flops into action in a series of hilarious events guaranteed to make you laugh out loud, pee your pants, guffaw...Or at least smile...you android, you.

Filled with a bizarro bevy of buffoons, all trying to save the world in their own way, Why Did the Chicken Cross the Universe? tries to realistically address how a science fiction plot would happen, while throwing an occasional monkey wrench at the head of one of the thousands of monkey's on a thousand typewriters creating this series.
