Man who stands in front of big tank becomes mu-shu pancake.






Okay, that was tasteless. Especially since the fortune cookie is a western thing. I think. Oh well. I'm so not ready for the summer olympics this year.

And look what they did to us in 84!

Of course our bitch slap was over Afganistan. Everything old is new again.

I learned in church youth-group to add "...in bed" to the end of any furtune cookie fortune.

Now, my buddy Mike and I have an ongoing competition in the workplace to see who can 'out-fortune' the other. Whoever has the naughiest, most vulgar or suggestive fortune by adding "...in bed" wins!

Mike eats Chinese WAY more than I do though, and has been handily thrashing me with the power of his fortunes here recently. In fact, I think I may have received a fortune that is unbeatable. A couple of weeks ago, Mike threw this one down on my desk.

"You think that is a secret, but it never has been one [in bed]"

The runnerup?

...but it seemed like such a good idea at the time...

You will go to an unusual party.

You will take a trip to the desert.

I swear to god(des), one time someone at the table got one that said "Quit your job, drop your friends and move from this city."

Always wondered, bad day at the fortune factory?

Cleaning off my desk today, I found these two buried under some papers - leftovers from my "fortune-off" competition with my buddy Mike.

"It is time to help a friend in need. Give your best [in bed]"

and

"Be prepared to modify your plans [in bed]"

I wish I had the cookie that had the winning lottery numbers!

People really play them.

One year, 6 people won it with the same number. All of them got the number off a fortune cookie.

I alway thought that fortune cookies were better at predicting then any astrologist!

Today's fortune came after a job interview:
"Confidence of success is almost success."
I'm hoping this means that the dancing feeling I had after the interview means that I'm almost there...successfully employed.
