Show B4 Life Monday • November 17, 2008 Event: Identity Cha-cha is a phone service that will answer any question for you at any time of day. Kind of makes you wonder why you're spending all that cash on tuition, doesn't it?

"It's generally accepted that the egg came first (at breakfast), followed by the chicken (around lunchtime)." "Science has not yet answered that key question, but I do know the Egg McMuffin came before the Chicken McNugget!" "The egg definitely came first.
