Too Busy Fortune

I have been too busy. Working every evenings,and signing up on many of the Paid to clicks sites, Clixsense,Cashcrate,DAilyclicks,Master bux and 10bux.net.Trying to earn a little bucks here and there. At lease I received my 1st checks from Clixsense. Not a lot, $8.72 (11.72.minus $3.00 fees) but I have more $10.00 checks coming to me soon, these 2 weeks.
Here I have a few fortunes to catch up:

"Your success in life must be earned with earnest efforts" I believe in this, always work hard and genuine, you will be paid for.

''Great thoughts come from the heart" -True or False? People always said" It is the thought that counts"

'' Handsome is that handsome does" - Can someone explain this

'" You are tasting the sweets of success" - I love this and looking forward to it.

"You are kind -hearted and hospitable,cheerful and well-liked"

'"You are going to take a vacation" I need one for a long , long time.

"An empty stomach is not a good political advisor"

" People are attracted by your delicate features."

"Depart not from the path which fate has you assigned."

" You display the wonderful traits of charm and courtesy"

A Christmas Fortune Cookie

Our Christmas was spent with our family in Montgomery ,Alabama. We and the boys drove down to Montgomery , at about 6 pm and arrived about 7 15.It was not a long drive, but it was raining lightly. We did not have a cold Christmas but it was wet.
We stayed till Christmas Day. The kids got their gifts, and we have a lot of Chinese Friends came over on Christmas Day.We cooked a lot of food, and sang Karaoke, some real Chinese Oldies.
We had a Great Christmas ,with friends and families around us.
The Christmas Fortune Cookie says
" You are demonstrative with those you love"
Sometimes we need to show the person we loved by demonstrating our love with actions. Whether with just a card, flowers or gifts or simple words. Even with a home cooked meal,or simple tasks. Sometimes a simple email will do.
It is not necessary to remember only Valentine's Day ,Birthdays, or Anniversaries,Even on an
Ordinary Day, A simple Post It note will sure brighten someones Day.

The job as a Cookie Master.

Have you been enjoying your fortune cookies'sayings? Do you know who writes all these messages and what it takes to be a Cookie Master?
As a vice-president at Wonton Food, Inc., in Long Island City, Donald Lau manages the company’s accounts payable and receivable, negotiates with insurers, and, somewhat incidentally, composes the fortunes that go inside the fortune cookies, of which Wonton is the world’s largest manufacturer. Each day, Wonton’s factory churns out four million Golden Bowl-brand cookies, which are sold to several hundred venders, who, in turn, sell them to most of the forty thousand Chinese restaurants across the country. Wonton’s primacy in the industry and, for that matter, in the gambler’s imagination is such that when, in March, five of six lucky numbers printed on a fortune happened to coincide with the winning picks for the Powerball lottery, a hundred and ten people, instead of the usual handful, came forward to claim prizes of around a hundred thousand dollars. Lottery officials suspected a scam until they traced the sequence to a fortune printed with the digits “22-28-32-33-39-40” and Donald Lau’s prediction: “All the preparation you’ve done will finally be paying off.”

“We’ve had winners before, but never this many,” Lau said the other day, in his East Williamsburg office, which is furnished with stacks of financial reports and “A Dictionary of American Proverbs.” “A computer picks the numbers, not me. If only a computer could also write the fortunes.” Lau never expected to become a fortune-cookie writer. After graduating from Columbia with degrees in engineering and business, he joined Bank of America, then ran a company that exported logs from the Pacific Northwest to China. In the early eighties, he was hired by a Chinatown noodle manufacturer, which eventually expanded into fortune cookies. The firm bought the Long Island City plant, and it soon became apparent that its antiquated catalogue of fortunes would have to be updated. (“Find someone as gay as you are,” one leftover from the nineteen-forties read.) “We knew we needed to add new sayings,” Lau said. “I was chosen because my English was the best of the group, not because I’m a poet.”

At first, the writing came easily. Finding inspiration in sources ranging from the I Ching to the Post, Lau cranked out three or four maxims a day, between scrutinizing spreadsheets and monitoring the company’s inventory of chow mein. “I’d be on the subway and look up at the signs and think, Hey, that would make a great fortune,” he said. (One such adage: “Beware of odors from unfamiliar sources.”) “I’d keep a small notebook and jot down whatever came to me. I don’t think I ever sat in front of the computer and said, ‘I am going to write ten fortunes right now.’ It has to come naturally.”

Love, riches, power: there is a limited range of experience that can be expressed in one sentence, and, about eleven years into his tenure, Lau began to run out of ideas. He leaned increasingly on traditional Chinese sayings, which offer insight (along the lines of “True gold fears no fire”) but not foresight (“Your income will increase”), and in 1995 he gave up altogether. “I’ve written thousands of fortunes, but the inspiration is gone,” Lau said. “Have you heard of writer’s block? That is what happened to me.”

These days, he cycles selections from his vast oeuvre in and out of circulation. He is worried that readers will notice that the cookies are in reruns, which might result in Wonton’s losing its edge on the competition. (This is unlikely. Although there are about forty fortune-cookie companies in the United States, few have Wonton’s manufacturing capabilities.) So Lau has decided to bring in new blood. The company will soon advertise for a new fortune writer, and Lau will make the transition to editor. “Maybe when I retire I’ll write again—perhaps a book about writing fortunes,” he said. Returning to form, he summarized the thrust of the book with two simple axioms. “Don’t have too complicated a mind,” he said. “Think in ten-word sentences.”

Today's cookie ($25.00 Bonus)

Wednesday is quite a busy day for lunch at the restaurant. I wonder what my little fortune cookie has to say.

Today's fortune cookie says" Avert misunderstanding by calm, poise and balance"
Avert means turn away from.It is true that sometimes when we are in a difficult situation with someone , it is best to deal with it with calmness rather than anger and rage.
