Fortune: 1789 - 1798 of 2182 from Freebsd Fortunes 3

Freebsd Fortunes 3:  1789 of 2182

Gay shlafen:  Yiddish for "go to sleep".

Now doesn't "gay shlafen" have a softer, more soothing sound than the
harsh, staccato "go to sleep"?  Listen to the difference:
        "Go to sleep, you little wretch!" ... "Gay shlafen, darling."
Obvious, isn't it?
        Clearly the best thing you can do for you children is to start
speaking Yiddish right now and never speak another word of English as
long as you live.  This will, of course, entail teaching Yiddish to all
your friends, business associates, the people at the supermarket, and
so on, but that's just the point.  It has to start with committed
individuals and then grow....
        Some minor adjustments will have to be made, of course: those
signs written in what look like Yiddish letters won't be funny when
everything is written in Yiddish.  And we'll have to start driving on
the left side of the road so we won't be reading the street signs
backwards.  But is that too high a price to pay for world peace?
I think not, my friend, I think not.
                -- Arthur Naiman

GEMINI (May 21 - June 20)
        A day to take the initiative.  Put the garbage out, for
        instance, and pick up the stuff at the dry cleaners.  Watch
        the mail carefully, although there won't be anything good
        in it today, either.

GEMINI (May 21 to Jun. 20)
        Good news and bad news highlighted.  Enjoy the good news while you
        can; the bad news will make you forget it.  You will enjoy praise
        and respect from those around you; everybody loves a sucker.  A short
        trip is in the stars, possibly to the men's room.
