Fortune cookies

I know this is a baseball blog, and everything. But since the season is about to start, and it'll be baseball 24/7 for then on till the end of the season. I thought I'd do a blog about something off topic, and well I was watching a show and it taught me how fortune cookies were made. Turns out the paper is put inside an un-folded fortune cookie then it goes on this conveyor belt type thing and mechanical fingers/claws fold it. This totally bummed me out because I have always had this image of 50 tiny little midgets on a tiny little desk folding fortune cookies with their tiny little hands one by one. Then they'd take their tiny little breaks and drink their tiny little drinks. Then go back to their tiny little jobs. Then they clock out and cash their tiny little paychecks, so they can pay off their tiny little cars. But no it turns out a fucking machine does it. Speaking of midgets though did you know the first midget was named Rosco. He was a corn farmer in Nebraska! Then one day he went out into the corn fields, and he got lost in the corn field, and never found his way back out. Ever since then midgets aren't allowed in corn fields. I love midgets they're kind of like an endangered species. We need to make sure they have food, and water.

Anyways. That's baseball for you.
