Hava a random (weekly) generator of activities and / or todo items.  =
Think of everyday question like sports (shall I go cycling , swimming or =
running) May also be used for creativity teasers and any other kind of =
randomizable decission making.

What is wrong with my approach ?
(Yes I am new to lisp, but I hope that does not matter here to much. )
