  13. this well know joke has been around for hundreds of years at least. It was probably invented somewhere in the mid 1800's and was passed around by word of mouth until it was first published in March 1847 in page 283 of the new york monthly magazine. Here is the original quote

    'There are quips and quillets which seem actual conundrums, but yet are none. Of such is this: Why does a chicken cross the street? Are you out of town? Do you give it up? well then: Because it wants to get to the other side
