The Romans had the Sortes Virgilianae, a form of bibliomancy by which fortunes were told by randomly choosing a passage from Virgil’s Aeneid.
Modern man has the Sortes Musica. Set your mp3 player to random, think of a question, then interpret the next song until it fits your preconcieved notion of the immediate future.

The number one grossing movie of all time is still Titanic. As of this moment, Snow White and the Seven Dwarves is number 100.
