Sometimes I just flip a coin. Takes all the tough decision-making headaches out of the equation. So much easier that way.

And why did I not think of this those many, many decades ago. It would have solved a lot of problems.

I know what you mean, and if you don't like the result, you make it best of three. I mean who hasn't driven over a tramp when they're in a hurry.

@ Sometimes I just flip a coin.
I tried that once but I get so excited with that little coin spinning through the air that I always forget to call heads or tails. Even when I do remember by the time I get to the reveal, I have forgotten.

You know: Pigeon guts dumped

You know: Pigeon guts dumped on a white sheet can often be used to predict the future and show you the most moral path to take. But if your wife catches you she will divorce you.

Yeah, tell me about it.... *rolling eyes*... My wife was definitely NOT happy with me that day she caught me doing that. It wasn't because of the ritual itself, mind you. She was actually cool with that. But since I didn't have any pigeon guts available, I used the chicken casserole she had cooked for dinner. Now I just stick to looking in our cats' litter box and reading the arrangement of the cat turds they leave in there. So far that has helped keep my moral compass "fairly" straight.

What's your moral compass and how does it work for you?

Personally, I prefer to sacrifice a chicken over an oil drum and role some human finger bones in order to guide my decisions... like any good atheist.
