Quote of the Day - 12.26.08

QUOTE OF THE DAY....From Michael O'Hare, after reading some disturbing news:

Great challenges, widespread deprivation, and collective enterprise need more chocolate, not less.

Quite so, and Barack Obama better not forget it. All together, I think I received about four pounds of chocolate this Christmas, so I'm set for the next couple of days. After that, store shelves better remain fully stocked if everyone expects this blog to continue.

See's candies are the best in the world. I've indulged myself in Switzerland, Belgium, France, Germany, England, Ireland and other places in the U.S and they come out tops!

If it's not at least 70% cacao, it's not really chocolate.

See's candies / chocolates are the reason to hate Warren Buffet.

Sure, he bought the company and thus ensured it had adequate capital to keep going (though it was doing fine anyhow), but he also realized how devoted its customers were, and instituted annual price increases on December 26, knowing we'd still buy them anyway.

Dark chocolate almond brittle for me.
