LOL Spiider, well, with what you are facing, I'm sure this is something that is high on your list!! Who the hell can live without chocolate? I can't!!!

Today is the day the Decider signs the Traitor Bill (that's a good description of it) which will suspend Habaes Corpus for anyone that the Dear Leader determines to be an enemy combatant.

Apparently I am an enemy combatant because I'm not on Bush's side. Spit. I hate him more than eating liver. Spit again.

I used to work in a Hershey & M&M Mars Distributing Warehouse ... which led to my losing the taste for chocolate as it's flavor became synonymous with or closely related to work hard work argh! luckily however or perhaps *puzzlement* ok scratch that TGI returned to being able to fully enjoy the luxury of chocolate.

hehehe
Peace
