Zoe excitedly opened her Chinese fortune cookie after dinner yesterday and her brow furrowed. She looked perplexed, and slammed down little white fortune slip on the table.

“This dumb fortune doesn’t even make sense!” she cried.

“What does it say?” I asked.

“It says ‘Boots and water are in your furniture. Have fun!’ What the heck does that mean?”

Jachin went over to assist her. He read it silently and said, “No Zoe, it says ‘Boats and water are in your future. Have Fun!’”

She heaved a big sigh. “That doesn’t make any sense, either!”

3. It makes sense but it does suck as far as fortune cookies go.

4. You’ve got to admit, that’s a lousy fortune. Poor Zoe.
