Now i don't put a lot of stock in the fortunes found inside those cookies. But this time, as i broke it open and read it while using a piece to scoop some ice cream out of its cup, i realized that this one could be a real life changer. Something that might really come in handy in life. The answer to so many of life's nagging puzzles.
If your cookie is in 3 pieces, the answer is no.
I looked down and sure enough i saw three pieces. This had to be a sign. Some spiritual awakening that would serve as a guide for the future. Just think of all the questions in life that this simple fortune could solve.
Will giving that winning Mega Million ticket to that oddly dressed stranger that smells bad, make me happy?
Should i play Mario Andredi on the local side streets and leave the local cops in the dust?
Would putting the q-tip in my power drill clean my ears really good?
Should i quit my job, move to a mountain cave, and contemplate my navel (one I've seldom asked)??
As i pondered these deep quandaries, the melting ice cream began dripping down my hand. I looked down and realized that a fourth piece of cookie had fallen into the ice cream cup. So much for all the answers to life's nagging puzzles. I guess i'll keep wondering like my hero, who is still sitting on the 12th floor of the Acme Building trying to find the answer to life persistent questions, Guy Noir.
