Blog Hijack #3 / Lucky #17


In case you were wondering what the future holds, Sean, Thailand knows. Fortune telling is conveniently located in your neighborhood temple. And, so you know, Buddha doesn't go in for any of that tea leaves/palm reading malarkey. Buddha is efficient. He uses a bulletin board. Its 28 fortunes correspond to numbered lacquered sticks, one of which you have drawn from a cup. And you can re-pick if you don't like your lot in life. I liked mine, #17, just fine so no need to double dip:

"Bright future and success is yours. Never in a lifetime that you'll be wretched. You'll be loved and kind by all. You'll always have good fortune like a fruitful plant never lack of fruits. Asking of a spouse, you surely will find one. If you're expecting a child, it's certain that a baby will be born. Your cousins and escaping debtors will be in touch. For you who are involved in a lawsuit, you're likely to win the case."

Hear that, Sean? Never in a lifetime that I'll be wretched. I am like a fruitful plant that never lack of fruits.

Never.
