Fortune Cookie
I cracked opened a fortune cookie today and it read:

"You will have an important discussion today."

Hmmm, I wonder when and where that discussion will be? Yes, I did speak with the President earlier today about the bailout bill going through Congress, but I dont think that's what fortune cookie was referring to.

I'm pretty sure that the discussion will be right here on TRF, in the open discussion forum. Sooo .....Bubba, Jimbits, TR, and other members of TRF.... I'm all ears.

Thanks for asking, I'm not sold on it...yet.

To be honest with you, I have reservations about the cooling anode sufficiently capturing electrons that would disturb the substrate.

C'mon Bubba and JJ, I need your wisdom for my moment of Zen today. The Fortune Cookie does not lie.

Tell me, what is the secret to a happy marriage?
