Program Notes
The title comes from an unusual source. Several years ago, one of the local refineries were selling off some old Cushman trucksters, which are small, three wheeled industrial trucks. I bought one and soon had it street legal and registered (as a motorcycle since it is a three wheeler). It has one headlight right in the center of the front end. My friend down the street calls it the one-eyed chicken. Every time I go visit him he asks, "Did you come in a real car, or did you come in the one eyed-chicken?"
