Nit Wits #34: Chicken Eggo June-10-2007
Which came first, the chicken or the eggo? by Chris Dunmire

The first definition of ego in my Merriam-Webster Dictionary is "the self as distinguished from others." And as I'm pecking my way through Murray Stein's Jung's Map of the Soul, its glossary defines ego as "the center of consciousness, the 'I.'" Yes, two ways of saying eggproximately the same thing.

I can tell you the eggsact influences this week which have inspired Nit Wits #34 ("Chicken Eggo"): My reading of Jung's Map of the Soul and Christine Stefanitsis' blog Chicken Scratch (the chickens on top of the site just peeped this out of me). Bringing the creative elements together was not so much of a quizzical feat; in a "what if" stream of consciousness I envisioned a free-range chicken taking an online Web quiz measuring his "chicken-ness".

How Chicken are YOU?

1. 100% chicken
2. Processed chicken
3. Tastes like chicken

The anima (or animus) of a chicken would feel most authentic in pecking answer #1 for this question. Like any predictable poultry, he would secretly wish to respond to the "important" questions with the most eggtractive answers.

The irony of all of this chicken stuff is that I had a dream the other night in which I had over a dozen chickens in my house. I wonder what the symbolism of a chicken in a dream is? And would little hatched peeps be called Jung chickens? See, this just gets funnier and funnier as I move along with free association. What a coop of creativity!
