Gene: Me too. He will have green eyes and be very rich.
Jane: Mine will have blue eyes and will be very rich.
Gene: Yes and we will have 2 children. One boy named Addison, and one girl named Madison.
Jane: Oh nice, mine will be two girls named Avery and Ava. We are going to have a huge movie room and a huge walk in closet so I can put all my D&G and Bebe cloths.
Gene: My husband is going to go work in a huge office and have important meetings all day. I'll be able to stay home.
Jane: Mine will be an important government official and will have to travel a lot to meet world leaders. I also get to stay home and do important volunteer work.
Gene: Yes and we will live in a very nice gated community with a large pool in the back yard and a very very hot live in full time pool boy named Carlos.
Jane: Oh my live in full time pool boy is named Jose and he has long long black hair that he lets flow over his huge shoulders as he cleans and scrubs the pool all day.
Gene: Ohhh, Carlos has short hair, but he shaves symbols into it like a piece sign to match the large on one his chest.
Jane: Jose doesn't have any tattoos except one around his large shoulder, because it enhances it so so nicely.
Gene: Carlos will come in and have coffee with me and give me a massage because taking care of the kids makes my neck stiff.
Jane: Jose makes me coffee and then gives me a foot massage because my 5 inch heels make my toes cramp up.

The Fear of Death


A middle class man and woman sit in a bar.

Woman: What do you think about death?

Man: It sux. What do think about it?

Woman: It means we have to enjoy every minute because this life won't last forever. It means that we need to not waste time because it doesn't last forever.

Man: It means everything you accomplished means nothing.

Woman: Which means that you should only do things because you want to do them, not because you are trying to impress someone else who won't even notice now or after you are long dead.

Man: Death is the end of all your hopes, dreams and wants.

Woman: Why not make your hopes and dreams and wants come true today? Why not live every moment and enjoy it.

Man: Death means that we can’t fix our mistakes.

Woman: Why not stop worrying about making mistakes and just savor each moment as a gift? Instead of being worried about the future, just thank God for the present moment.

Make the Most of your Misfortunes


Two 36 year old middle class women sitting in a local tea shop. They went to college together 16 years ago.

Lacy: I got fired this morning.

Sarah: Oh, I am so sorry.

Lacy: Yeah, Its really terrible, but a few friends who have sent my resume to their HR departments.

Sarah: Well that’s hopeful.

Lacy: Yeah, I should have a new job in a few weeks. Everyone wants my skills now a days.

Sarah: Well send me your resume and I’ll send it to my HR department too, I am not sure what kind of openings we have, but I’ll put in a good word

Lacy: That’s awesome. It’s cool having a college buddy like you.

Sarah: Well make sure that you take time to make use of this situation.

Lacy: What are you talking about? Like going to the beach or taking a cruise?

Sarah: No I mean like thinking about what you learned about life and your self from being fired.

Lacy: Huh? My employer sucks? That’s what I learned.

Sarah: No I mean like what did you learn about business or the bigger picture of the economy that were at play in your situation.

Lacy: what?

Sarah: Yeah, every misfortune has lessons to teach us.

Lacy: You are crazy.

Sarah: I was abandoned by parents when I was 8. I mined that misfortune for all it was worth.

Lacy: Like what?

Sarah: Like that I learned how to be a good parent to my own kids for one. I learned what love means and what it doesn’t mean. I learned to forgive others. I learned to survive on my own. I learned that no matter what happens to me in the future it can’t be as bad as what I’ve already gone through. Which means I have no fear and I take risks that pay of big a lot of times. That’s lead to great success in my career.

Lacy: So that’s your secret? You’re the CEO of one of the state’s most successful companies. And the reason why is because you were abandoned at 8?

Sarah: Well we all have our own misfortunes. You have to mine whatever your own misfortunes are.

Lacy: I’ll never be a CEO because my life has been pretty sweet so far.

Sarah: It’s all a matter of perspective. You can mine all your experiences for gold.

Lacy: Nah, my life can’t teach me anything. I’ll never be successful like you/

Sarah: I guess not.

Conversation GPS


Conversation GPS or CGPS is a system that whispers into your ear what to say next to achieve your goal in any conversation.

Outside the restaurant for Bobbie’s first date with a girl he met on OkCupid.

Bobbie: OK CGPS.

CGPS: Yes Bobbie. Please enter your conversation Destination.

Bobbie: I want to get this girl into my bed to have sex with me..

CGPS: Ok, Bobbie, let me make sure I have your destination correct: You want to seduce this woman. What is her name?

Bobbie: Sara James.

CGPS: I am looking up her entire social network information, one moment, calculating. I am now looking up her phone records and internet usage and cookies. Ok now I am checking her GPA and transcripts. Ok Bobbie. I have completely mapped out your route. Please enter the restaurant.

Bobbie enters the Restaurant, Olive Garden. He sees a slightly chubby woman who slightly resembles the woman from OK Cupid.

CGPS: Identity confirmed: Sara James. Please approach.

He approaches her.

CGPS: Say, Hi I am Bobbie, you must be Sara.

Bobbie: Hi, I am Bobbie. You must be sara.

Sara: Nice to meet you.

They shake.

CGPS: Say, You looks so much younger than your profile pic.

Bobbie: repeats CGPS.

Sara blushes.

Sara: You are so nice.

They follow a waiter to their table.

CGPS: Bobbie, pull out her chair.

He pulls out her chair and she sits smiling ear to ear shyly.

CGPS: Say, Tell me about your idea of happiness.

Bobbie repeats.

Sara: Being loved by someone for all of eternity.

Bobbie laughs.

Bobbie: Ha ha ha.

Sara turns bright red and scowls.

CGPS: Bobbie! Don’t Laugh! Say, I am so sorry, I just am in shock that you have the same idea of happiness that I have.

Bobbie repeats.

Sara smiles.

Sara: Really?

CGPS: Say, Yes, its all I’ve ever wanted.

Bobbie repeats.

Sara: That’s amazing. No men ever say things like that.

CGPS: Say, I care too much. I am such an emotionally available man. Most women just don’t want that much attention and affections.

Bobbie repeats.

Sara: Wow. Gosh, I don’t even know what to say.

The waiter takes their order and leaves.

CGPS: Tell me about an interesting childhood memory.

Bobbie repeats.

Sara: When I was 11 I got stranded in a row boat in a lake behind my house. I was stuck out there for hours. My paddles fell in and I couldn’t get back to shore.

Bobbie Laughs loudly.

Bobbie: Ha ha ha! Why didn’t you just swim to shore, are you a looser?

Sara looks shocked and hurt.

Sara: I was 11! I was scared.

CGPS: Bobbie!! Say, I am so sorry Sara. Then take her hand. I missed that you were 11. I feel terrible about laughing. You must have been terrified.

Bobbie repeats and takes her hand.

Sara smiles shily.

They eat. And make small talk about movies.

Bobbie: what do you say we go back to my place?

Sara looks shocked again.

Sara: I don’t think that’s a good idea.

CGPS: Bobbie! Say, I wanted to surprise you, but I wanted to show you my collection of love letters my father wrote to my mother while he was stationed over seas. I haven’t shared them with anyone else but you seem like such a kindred spirit.

Bobbie repeats.

Sara: Wow. That’s so romantic! I would be so honored to see them.

Bobbie and her go back to his apartment.

Sara: I was wondering if you’d ever put out.

Bobbie: What???

Sara: My CGPS-2000 kept telling me to act hard to get.  I finally  turned it off.

CGPS: What??? Blasphemy! She was using a newer version of me! She was too good.  It even told her to blush!

Bobbie: I feel used. Let me turn off my CGPS too. It’s so annoying.

Woman: No, you are mistake. Go look again. You probably have another case of them.

Post office cashier: Seriously, I double checked already.

Woman:  You are a professional, check again. I just don’t believe that you could have really sold the last one.

Post office cashier: Mam, this is my Job. I know exactly how many Elvis stamps we had. I know we just sold the last one.

Woman:  Let me back there and let me try to look for it myself.

Post office cashier: You are not a US post office official, mam, you are not qualified to search.

Woman throws her arms in the air:  You made a mistake, Sir. You should plan better and have enough stamps to meet demand.  I hold you responsible for this calamity.

Post office cashier: Mam, they were limited run Elvis stamps. By nature we printed less than demand would require. This is just what happens to all limited run stamps. I’ve seen it happen many times. But I understand your grief and I have a hotline that you can call to get help.

Fortune Cookie Writers Association Annual meeting

Chairman: today we again are addressing the Assocation for Upholding Moral Behavior In Society's complaint about our fortune cookies uses.
Audience groans.
Member 1: this is the same story every year!
Chairman: settle down. This year we've asked them to send us a rep and Id like us all to be polite to Mrs Sandi Thompson. 
Mrs Sandi Thompson makes her way to the front.
Audience boos.
Mrs Sandi Thompson: ladies and gentleman, let's start taking responsibly for the morals of our society. 
Audience makes unhappy noises.
Chairman gets up
Chairman: remember to be polite.
Mrs Sandi Thompson: we have some long standing complaints about the often performed habit which you all encourage with your fortune cookie scripts of adding the phrase " in bed" after the sentence found inside. We find this is to entice immoral behavior in out citizens! It's very offensive, therefore even as we have asked before that you write sentences that prevent this type of appendage from being used for enticing of immoral behavior. 
Audience member : like what???
Mrs Sandi Thompson: we have a list compiled: 
"I love sleeping soundly", "I have good wholesome dreams.", "the place I will sleep tonight is."
My favorite:  "I never do immoral things"
That's our request. You are all very creative writers. I am sure you can come up with more.
Chairman: thank you mrs Thompson.
She leaves the stage to silence.
Chairman: we've so come up with a few.
"Ugh. You looked a lot better last night."
Or 
"I would love to try that."
"I wonder if you still are attractive."
Audience cheers.
Mrs Thompson returns
Mrs Thompson: I knew you could do it!

Addiction

Bob: Jill, you have that look in your eyes like when you stole my car to buy drugs.
Jill: Bob, you always walk around like you don't need anything. Try an addiction so you can understand the power of Need.
Bob: I need you Jill, that’s all.
Jill: You need me to need you. That doesn't count.
Bob: I need you to stay clean so you can live your life.
Jill: You would be bored out of your mind if I was clean. Who would you judge?
Bob: I want you to be in control of yourself.
Jill: You want to control me. You love that when I am high you can fully control me. And that when I am sober you can fully feel superior to me. You win no matter what.
Bob: I'd be happy if you were clean.
Jill: You'd be lost without me to take care of.
Bob: You'd be lost without me to take care of you.
Jill: I don't care if I am lost.
Bob: You need me. Tell me you need me.
Jill Cries
Bob: You don't even need to tell me. I know it.
