Supertasked egg laying is exactly what will save the universe and prove it's infinitude.
As I said, you begin talking about realized infinity and you quickly drift into absurdity.

Nonsense! I'll formalise all my arguments and collaborate with a scientific face.

Do you know of one?

What I have read, and I do not know, is that the experts believe the amount of matter and energy in the universe is finite.
No, if the universe is finite, it contains finite matter. If it is inifnite, then it contains inifnite matter. Any scientist definitely claiming one or the other isn't really worth listening to.

I'm ashamed of you. Everybody else in Texas knows, "It was the cock that came 1st!"

Ditto above. At least all the old cowboys in Texas knows what, "Breaking eggs", is. Shame.

I am moving to Denton this month, and am trying to, "git ma idiom rat".

Where would we get this chicken?
Find a 'super' chicken shit, and follow the trail to its source?
