This is your fortune, let's switch cookies.

Today Thelma and I went to get dim sum for brunch. At the end of the meal, our server came and dropped off the check and two fortune cookies. I handed Thelma my credit card and reached for a cookie. I cracked it open and it read: "You will be recognized and honored as a community leader."

Right away I said to Thelma: "I think this one is your fortune. Let's switch."

Thelma of course said, "No, that could be you!"

She reached for her cookie, and cracked it open. This one read, "Your mentality is alert, practical, and analytical."

And then we switched fortunes. Told you, Thelma!

I wish my cookie said that.
