the Random Fortune Generator

20 sided dieStolen from The Virtual Roadside, via the Generator Blog, and truly random in that fewer than half of the results are actually fortunes. I did get “you will have a fight with your supervisor” but given the fact that I am completely unsupervised, it fades towards meaninglessness…as does everything, really.

But it’s okay. I’ve still got my poetry.

A doctor, an architect, and a computer scientist were arguing about

whose profession was the oldest. In the course of their arguments, they

got all the way back to the Garden of Eden, whereupon the doctor said, “The

medical profession is clearly the oldest, because Eve was made from Adam’s

rib, as the story goes, and that was a simply incredible surgical feat.”

The architect did not agree. He said, “But if you look at the Garden

itself, in the beginning there was chaos and void, and out of that the Garden

and the world were created. So God must have been an architect.”

The computer scientist, who’d listened carefully to all of this, then

commented, “Yes, but where do you think the chaos came from?”

quiz: what drug are you?

I’m kind of disappointed I’m not acid. After explaining some of the things I think and see to some of my druggier friends, I was quite firmly told that I didn’t need to try acid: there was nothing it could show me that I wasn’t already seeing.

You mean you don’t see that?
