fortunes

3:17 pm on Friday, February 3rd, 2006

Yesterday, during my daily trudge to Calculus, someone came up behind me and said, apparently in my direction: “Do you want the rest of my fortune cookie? I’m not going to finish it.” A bearded but otherwise sane-looking person was proferring three yellow shards. Perhaps taking my surprised yip as assent, he tipped the moist pieces into my palm and strode off. It was very strange. The fortune cookie went to a nearby squirrel, and I, bemused, went to Calculus.

I can’t tell Kurt Russell and Patrick Swayze apart. Can anyone?
