Windows 10: Is there an app that will read UNIX fortune data files?

Is there an app that will display fortune cookies using data files from the UNIX fortune program? I am looking for something elegant and unobtrusive that can display cards from the Brian Eno/Peter Schmidt Oblique Strategies, for which a fortune data file exists. For those who are not familiar with them, the Oblique Strategies are a set of odd suggestions to help creative people when they are stuck.

Alternatively, a native Windows implementation of the Oblique Strategies would be great, but I don't believe one exists, except for a rather ugly and dated version for Windows 95. Perhaps it should be no surprise that Mac users are better served in this regard.

Which Unix Do You Use?

Also, since this is about Unix based OSes, why is everyone listing their Windows version? Besides, how is Unix related to a mac vs PC discussion?
