Have a Cookie
where do the cookies come from?
here's an email I got that reminded me of them: The following is the 2007 winning entry from an annual contest at Texas A&M University calling for the most appropriate definition of a contemporary term. This year a definition is required for the contemporary term, 'Political Correctness'. The winner wrote: Quote:

I hate when you're just getting ready to click somewhere and you see a few words from a bottom cookie that looks interesting but...too late...you've already clicked past it.
Someone left the cookie in the rain I don't think that I can take it ' cause it took so long to bake it And I"ll never have that recipe againnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn Ohhhhhhhhh nooooooooooooooooo. (As a Carol Leifer once said: It's just a CAKE, buddy.)

If you click the back button, the same one should still be there. It is for me, anyway.

Well poo...I made a bad assumption that it would not be.
I really need to pay more attention to the cookies; there are some doozies out there.

The cookies are a combination of many sources of short pithy quotes. Several fortune files and private collections were merged. Also it was form to say "cookie!" on the Cellar mk 2 whenever somebody said something cookie-like. There are 2508 cookies.
Due to this thread, I have improved on my original cookie code (it's faster now! But not perceptibly so) and will gladly accept new cookies (James, your cookie is #2509). |
