Be Creative

By writing your own fortune cookie fortune.  Keep it positive.  Only uplifting ones will be printed.

Super cool.

From The Huffington Post -

People from all around the world are submitting their own tidbits of advice to the Museum of Food and Drink in New York City, where they will be printed and baked inside a fresh batch of fortune cookies. The museum will then serve the desserts to visitors, who can crack open their cookies and read a message from a stranger.

It’s part of the museum’s current exhibit, “Chow: Making The Chinese American Restaurant,” an exploration of Chinese food in America from 1910 to today, which opened this month.

Need a Drink 2

If you downloaded the Minibar Delivery App that delivers liquor to your door, but haven't ordered yet, here's a 10% off code for your first order.  It's ANDREWS10.

Cheers.

Side note - I promise I don't have any stakes in this game.  I just know most of us will need all the coping mechanisms we can find to get through these next four years.

God help us all.

'Obama made me a better man,' Glenn Beck tells The New Yorker
By William Cummings

Beck went even further in the interview, saying President Obama "made me a better man." This is the man who called Obama a Marxist. a racist with a "deep-seated hatred for white people" and who once asked a guest if Obama might be the Antichrist.
"I did a lot of freaking out about Barack Obama," Beck conceded to The New Yorker. He said he regrets calling the president a racist and he said he considers himself a Black Lives Matter supporter.
