A friend of mine said one day
you talk like a fortune cookie.

00:00:06.690 --> 00:00:07.920 align:middle line:90%
[LAUGHTER]

00:00:07.920 --> 00:00:10.950 align:middle line:84%
I decided to write
a lot of poems

00:00:10.950 --> 00:00:13.290 align:middle line:84%
that I call poems
from a Fortune cookie.

00:00:13.290 --> 00:00:16.741 align:middle line:90%
[LAUGHTER]

00:00:16.741 --> 00:00:17.730 align:middle line:90%


00:00:17.730 --> 00:00:19.230 align:middle line:90%
Poem from a Fortune cookie.

00:00:19.230 --> 00:00:21.060 align:middle line:90%
I'll read only a few of them.

00:00:21.060 --> 00:00:26.160 align:middle line:84%
There is no longer a Sun King
on top of the Aztec pyramids.

00:00:26.160 --> 00:00:30.120 align:middle line:84%
But if there were one, I would
sing, "Come eat my enchiladas".

00:00:30.120 --> 00:00:33.588 align:middle line:90%
[LAUGHTER]

00:00:33.588 --> 00:00:39.080 align:middle line:90%


00:00:39.080 --> 00:00:45.890 align:middle line:84%
My role in life, I'm like
a doctor at a resort.

00:00:45.890 --> 00:00:48.260 align:middle line:84%
Most people are there
for a good time,

00:00:48.260 --> 00:00:50.660 align:middle line:84%
but some have jobs
and are useful.

00:00:50.660 --> 00:00:53.930 align:middle line:90%
[LAUGHTER]

00:00:53.930 --> 00:00:58.700 align:middle line:84%
On the Chinese blacks, Jews,
homosexuals women and wolves

00:00:58.700 --> 00:01:00.950 align:middle line:90%
of the world.

00:01:00.950 --> 00:01:03.560 align:middle line:84%
You have to remind
yourself all the time

00:01:03.560 --> 00:01:06.530 align:middle line:84%
how great they are
to keep from reacting

00:01:06.530 --> 00:01:09.470 align:middle line:84%
with the automatic
put-down we are raised on.

00:01:09.470 --> 00:01:12.440 align:middle line:90%


00:01:12.440 --> 00:01:14.960 align:middle line:90%
Well, that's enough of that.

00:01:14.960 --> 00:01:16.970 align:middle line:84%
This next poem is
called being Jewish

00:01:16.970 --> 00:01:21.400 align:middle line:84%
and it's part of a
long family saga.

00:01:21.400 --> 00:01:23.000 align:middle line:90%
