The Kind of Fortunes I Like to Find in Fortune Cookies | Cholinergic Urticaria.net

My wife recently made some Japanese food (rice, chicken, and veggies). It was delicious. But as we were shopping in the store to buy the ingredients, I posed this question: ”Can you ever really enjoy a Chinese or Japanese meal without fortune cookies?” I think not.

So we picked up a small box of fortune cookies at the store when we were purchasing the ingredients for the meal. The meal itself was delicious, and as soon as I was done, I opened up my fortune cookie wrapper with the excitement of a young boy opening his first present. The fortune inside was awesome.

Here is a picture of my fortune cookie’s fortune:

My Fortune

That was the fortune I got. “Good health will be yours for a long time.” Wow. As I enjoyed the “oh-so-tasty” cookie wafer, I realized something: The fortune made me happy for a moment. Could it be true? Could good health really be in my future? No more hives?? Hmm. How nice…

Then a second thought occurred to me: “Good Lord man, get a grip. Has this Cholinergic Urticaria really brought  me to this level? Am I at the desperate point where I now find encouragement and hope in the printed phrases of mass-produced (albeit delicious) cookies? Someone please help me!”

Just thought I’d share…

Chuck Norris Turns 70 Years Old Today…Wow! | Cholinergic Urticaria.net

Chuck Norris has turned 70 years old today! Wow, I must say he is in great shape to be 70. If anyone doesn’t know who Chuck Norris is, please come out from the rock you have been hiding under. Just kidding. Chuck is a well-known action hero/martial artist/actor. He has a reputation (yes, even at 70) of being a tough guy. In fact, people have developed funny ”facts” dramatizing his tough-guy appeal.

I love the “chuckisms” (also called Chuck Norris Facts) that people have created over the years. I thought I would include a few since I just read about it being his birthday today. So here are some of my very favorite Chuck Norris-isms…

  1. When the boogieman goes to sleep each night, he checks his closet for Chuck Norris.
  2. Superman wears Chuck Norris Pajamas to bed.
  3. Chuck Norris’ tears cure cancer. Too bad he never cries…
  4. Chuck Norris once kicked a horse in the chin. Its descendants are known as “giraffes”.
  5. A company once tried to make Chuck Norris toilet paper, unfortunately, it wouldn’t take crap from anyone.
  6. When Chuck Norris has surgery, the anesthesia is given to the doctors.
  7. Chuck Norris doesn’t wear a watch. He decides what time it is.

Quick Update on my Cholinergic Urticaria Hives:

I actually have been thinking of a new theory about the hives based on something I have recently discovered. I am also trying a treatment for it (just started last night). At this time, I am going to wait and see how it works before I write in detail about it, but I do hope to elaborate about this soon. It may be a long shot, but there is some compelling evidence which led me to try this newer treatment. That is all I will say at this point. But soon I will tell whether or not it worked, and exactly what I figured out.
