Irish Fortune Cookie







When people think of fortune cookies, most picture the Chinese cookie that says something quite pithy (I love that word) like:

"Man who is coasting is going downhill" ~

Irish fortune cookies can be just as impressive:

* Strength to the Elbow!

* Stay clear of a person who is so useless they are only fit to mind mice at a crossroads.

* One who gossips has a tongue that could clip a hedge.

* Plan so carefully that if you're not fishing, you're mending your nets.


Some fortunes that I would like to put in a cookie:

* The car valet is making copies of your keys

* Your telephone number will appear in Telemarketers Weekly as the number of the week

* You should have used the chopsticks

* Your blog will be read by many, appreciated by only a few

* Blog not unless you have something useful to say.

Hmmmm..maybe I've gone too far here
