Which came first, the chicken or the egg

The Silver Companies joins you and members of City Council in your efforts to protect city-owned river and riparian land.

We're happy to be able to help, and we wish them the best.

They didn't want all their money tied up in land. We're buying the surplus from them and what we can buy around it.

what came first the chicken or the egg, is not relevant when you realize what comes around goes around and vice versa.
