Haha indeed! I like to reprove people when they put too much stock in things that they shouldn’t. Do you still read fortune cookies?

Poor Derek. I save my fortunes, but they are usually just as pathetic. Usually mine are just fortune homilies.

Yeah I get a lot of those non-fortune fortune cookies as well. You save all of them? What are some good (read funny) ones that you’ve had?

I guess it can’t hurt to be practical every now and again. As long as it’s not TOO often! Kidding!!!!!!!!!! Sort of…

Haha yeah, I suppose that you’re right. But I’m not too sure about being the sort of practical that this fortune seems to be referencing…

Hmm…I have a “fortune cookie” category but I never got your particular fortune. I have gotten the “homilies” as someone else wrote. Fortune cookies provide mucho amusement, especially if you add “Between the sheets” after reading them. The alternative suffix is “with a battle axe” but personally, “between the sheets” sounds much more fun.

What I’m not much liking is the fact that your site seems to be down whenever I want to read it!

Sorry about the site being down! As you know it’s served from my home (and my DSL isn’t real reliable I guess). But it still is pretty surprising because I generally only get an outage once every few weeks. Usually it doesn’t last too long, but sometimes they’ll last longer because I’m not at home (as was the case today).

Haha I’ve not thought to add either suffix, but I probably will give that a try next time! Sounds like more amusement to be had with fortune cookies. What’re some of the good ones that you’ve had?
