Day 250

"Learn to tell one joke properly"

There was once an island kingdom whose people were all fabulously wealthy. Even though they could have afforded to live anywhere they wanted, tradition dictated they stay on their tiny island home. 

Eventually, their king became frustrated and called a meeting of the tribe's elders. He said he wanted them to figure out a way he could enjoy his wealth, and stay within traditional guidelines. 

After much consideration, the elders suggested he build a magnificent throne. When he objected there was not enough room in his hut for a throne, the elders suggested he call in an engineer to solve the problem. 

Soon, the king's tiny hut was rigged with an elaborate system of ropes and pulleys. He could lower the huge throne for use during the day, and at night, he could haul the throne up, and lower his bed. This was truly the best of both worlds for the king. 

Unfortunately, after a few months of constant use the ropes frayed, and one night, the throne slipped and came crashing down on the king, killing him. 

The wise men of the island recognized a lesson in this experience and noted: "People who live in grass houses should not stow thrones."

Day 249: Twin Yourself with a Foreigner

"Why should towns have all the fun? Today, pick a foreigner at random and twin yourself with him or her. Then visit each other once a year."

I don't know where to start looking for foreigners to twin with, but once I find somebody I'll update on here.

Day 248

"Do everything society urges you to."

I didn't really get any urges from society today, so I guess they don't really want me to do anything that badly.

Day 247

"Eat Everything with Chopsticks."

This was actually a lot easier than I thought it would be, since I've actually been practicing my chop stick technique lately. Fried eggs were still a bit of a challenge though.
