Those of you who were at where I was at tonight will know the context of the cookie. I got a fortune cookie today. Inside was two slips of paper. They both said the same thing. "You have a deep interest in all that is artistic". Um, what? That's like running around and telling people they must like shoes. The vast majority of us would say we are interested in art and would consider this interest deep.
Maybe, I have more than a deep interst in art. What if I have deep interests in all things artistic? Business interests and personal interests and social interest and political, religious, bilogical, recriational, and practical. Fortune cookies are jokes. Invented by enterprising restauranteurs to make us eat bland stale cookies. They hold one power, the power of self dilution. If you see through it it makes you laugh if not you continue in the delusion. It's simple and well crafted.
Never forget this.
