Fortune cookies
For quite some time I've been collecting interesting, cool, geeky, thought-provoking, weird or merely funny taglines in a big file. A tagline is a witty and usually small note that you add at the end of each mail you send. They are also known as fortune cookies.

Oh and to determine zero you'll need another wraparound ;). Just because Romans can't represent zero doesn't mean a computer can't! Base 2.
