"Some Fortune Cookies, contain no fortune"

I've been a frequenter of a local asian food place just down the street.  I know I should eat out less, but I often don't feel like cooking too much.  It's odd to cook for one, you know?

Anyway, I have a collection of three fortunes adorning my monitor.  One cradled by a stuffed panda that made it on the window above my last desk nearly a year ago.

The first I opened today, and it seems rather fitting:  "Avoid compulsively making things worse."

Always good advice.

The next, I got a few weeks ago: "Examine the situation before you act impulsively."

Which, I need to do more of. 

Finally, "Attend to business another day, nurture your love life."

That, I'm not sure is good advice, but maybe.

Edit:  Just found another one:

"Good people are good because they've come to wisdom through failure."
