Place this, win a bottlecap

Salvaged from a dream. Too familiar to be sure if it's mine or not. If it's mine, it's a damn funny thing to come up with in a dream. If it's not, it's still a decent one-line gag. Can't remember original premise, but OLD WOMAN is being detained by airport security (pre-2001 in the dream.) Setting's not important. Just need a skeptical authority figure and an OLD WOMAN who BELIEVES SHE IS A CHICKEN.

And what's with all these pictures of eggs?

OLD WOMAN
Those are my grandchildren!

I can't say I woke up chuckling, but I definitely remembered it, eh.

I don't think it's actually been done by Mark McKinney's Chicken Lady, but don't you wish it had? (It'd probably be her children though, since she's rather a horny young thing.)

Aha!

The old joke which goes:

Doctor, my wife is nuts, she thinks she's a chicken!
Then why don't you have her sectioned/get her medication/etc
Becuase I need the eggs!

best I could do.
