Departing from custom, I actually kept the fortune from the fortune cookie. And carried it around in my wallet for over a year.
Just tried photographing it.
I really need a better camera.*
It reads, "You will inherit an unexpected sum of money within the year."
And, I added in pen the date of our outing, "9/26/10".
Once the fortune alerted me to the "sum of money" it was no longer "unexpected" (and was, in fact, actually hoped for) and therefore the inheritance could not occur without contradicting the terms of the fortune.
P.S. Until this post scriptum was added, it went without saying that the expected "unexpected sum of money" was not inherited "within the year."

Hahaha! But what other fortunes did you acquire this year, besides money? :D
When you read unexpected it sounds like your mind instantly jumped to larger amounts. How many small sums of money did you inherit?
If you always expect the unexpected does that make the unexpected always the expected?
