The nice thing about fortune telling devices is that you can make them mean whatever you want. [livejournal.com profile] hollyking's interpretation was pretty good as a literal translation goes. Play a game of follow the leader with the guys. In this day and age, I'd actually extend 'fellowship of men' beyond the male gender, and say it means "Get friends to hang out and have fun". Which worked well with my plans to do finn's tonight, but most of those who might otherwise go are working on 4880 tomorrow and don't want to go tonight. So, about an hour ago I decided it meant I should ask the girl from the apple store to dinner. I have since waffled and decided not to, of course, 'cause that's what I do. But hey, it sounded like a good idea at the time.

BTW, I'll give good money to anybody who can provide me with a proper electronic i ching calculator. And if you don't know /exactly/ what I mean by that, you don't know what I mean at all. I will be very picky.

I haven't. But, honestly, I suspect I'd have to have it custom made. I doubt anybody has actually produced one.

Tho, having said that, and thinking "But, there's the internet, where everything that ever was thought up by a deranged mind can be found", maybe I'm wrong.

dude, I would love to do finn's. I'm craving cheesefries something fierce.

I forgot about 2880, but assumed you just weren't gonna. Stupid of me.

There are a few electronic i ching calculators. There's a decent one that does both the penny-flipping calcluation and the straws calculation, but I'd have to go find it. I'll post again when I come across it.

Not knowing anything about your situation I couldn't give any depth to the interpretation. Of course, sometimes the simple interpretations are the best.

Thank you. I was really happy with it myself. My point, which I didn't quite make, was that I usually write up more indepth interpretations for myself, but it's hard to do for other people because I don't know their situations well enough.
