This fortune is funny on several levels. I eat chicken several times a week and in fact, had it yesterday for lunch AND supper. There's a few pieces left over, so I'll probably have it again for my late lunch today.
Maybe this fortune is warning me that if I eat much more chicken I'll start sprouting pinfeathers.
It's certainly not fortunate to be a chicken when I'm around.

Feathered Fried Fortune
Senior Citizen Humor
From the email archives:
Working people frequently ask retired people what they do to make their days interesting.
Well, for example, the other day my wife and I went into town and went into a shop. We were only in there for about 5 minutes. When we came out, there was a cop writing out a parking ticket. We went up to him and said,
'Come on man, how about giving a senior citizen a break?'
He ignored us and continued writing the ticket. I called him a Nazi. He glared at me and started writing another ticket for having worn tires. So my wife called him a dumbass. He finished the second ticket and put it on the windshield with the first. Then he started writing a third ticket. This went on for about 20 minutes. The more we abused him, the more tickets he wrote.
Personally, we didn't care. We came into town by bus. We try to have a little fun each day now that we're retired. It's important at our age.

That's the bad news.
The good news?
It was five million and sumpthin' a year ago.
At this rate, we'll be #1 in about ten years.
EDIT: Just checked and we've dropped to 4,787,069. At that rate, this blog will be in ten millionth place in ten years.
Funny False Fortune For a Fool
This isn't true; I'm not interested in public service, nor would I would make an outstanding statesman.
OTOH, I'd make a better president than the one we have now...or the last several, for that matter.
I'm still not sayin' I'd make an outstanding statesman, I'm just sayin'.
