Misadventures ensue for Ben when he gets a fortune cookie that tells him to “live each day as if it were his last.” Now Ben is worried that today could be his last day alive and he wants to make it count. Mistakes, apologies, daring choices make for a fun filled Saturday for Ben, his family, and his neighbors.
