My fortune cookie says, "You will have a very pleasant experience."

and, "You have a winning way. Keep it."

and "You will be admired for your internal beauty."

and "You'll be invited to dine in an adventurous place."

and "You will have gold pieces by the bushel."

These cookies suck. And what the hell is a bushel?

A bushel is one peck less than Miss Adelaide loves you.

a United States dry measure equal to 4 pecks or 2152.42 cubic inches

and I guess - if you're picky
a British imperial capacity measure (liquid or dry) equal to 4 pecks

There's an old college tradition with Chinese food and fortune cookies that makes these much more fun and interesting. Simply add the phrase "in bed" to any fortune. It will keep you entertained well into grad school.
