I’m not sure what I’m going to blog about today, but in the meantime, let me tell you a couple of stories:
A friend of mine told me that he went to a Chinese restaurant with his wife. After the meal, the host presented them with their fortune cookies. The host said: “Upon reading your fortune cookie you must add two words to the end of the saying.” The two words? “In bed.”
Greg’s fortune cookie read: “Now is the time to try something new.” Add “in bed.” Greg’s wife (Mary Anne) read: You are kind-hearted and hospitable, cheerful and well-liked” Add “in bed.” Look, I’m not suggesting you do this, especially if your children are with you, but it could be fun on a date night.
