Consider that added to my Fortunes collection. 

That's the lovely thing about Fortunes under Unix and generated entirely
at random from cron. You NEVER know what the fortune is until you have
read the message. Of course, I've had people tell me they read the fortune
first, in case the message is either unremarkable, tepid or just plain
boring. At least that way they have a random chance of reading something
interesting or humorous. I've had people running Windows.xx attempt to
emulate the Fortunes, but without effectiveness. 

It is as I say, if you don't like the fortune right now, wait around
another 2.2 minutes and it, and perhaps it and your outlook will change.
