Default Alarming global conspiracy??

Most mornings I like to start the day by eating 2 delicious boiled eggs.

Is it just me that's being picked on, or does anyone else notice that sometimes the egg is upside down in the shell?

The egg looks normal in every way, and I always make sure I put them in the egg-cooker the proper way up (pointy end down!), and even take the added precaution of floating the eggs in water beforehand to make sure I get the floaty end.

I'm starting to think this is a global conspiracy by either the animal rights mob, or even more frightening, the chickens themselves!

Imagine the global mayhem caused by chickens randomly deciding to make an upside down egg!

The mental anguish caused could be catastrophic.

And it doesn't end there, I've noticed that eggs are becoming more oval than pointy, some eggs have no point at all causing mass confusion in the kitchen.

Is this by design or global pollution?

We need to stamp this behaviour out now before it takes hold globally.

Who knows where it will end, maybe the chickens are about to take over! Evolution in progress .

Sorry, as you can tell I was a little bored this morning .

He should contact "Boycott Novell". They might know who's behind the egg conspiracy.

Probably not a hidden conspiracy. Just search through the mass of EU food legislation, including for example only allowing straight bananas, and not allowing mishapen vegetables (no, not the EU legislators ). It was only a matter of time before pointy eggs were made illegal. Suggest you have a word with your Euro MP, they can usually be found aboard the gravy train. HTH.

Sometimes you can find yourself in parts of these forums that your mother warned you about..... Interesting discussion here.

Queer bananas have never been illegal in the EU! <G>
(It was cucumbers, and that regulation is no more, to be fair)
