    Yeah, well, you should be. Think of all those disappointed girls . . . what is it now? 8? 9?

    Well, boycotting Belgium isn’t all that bad of an idea now with its rediculous selective world court. Belgium is second only to France in European Antisemitism.

    Actually I was just teasing my friend for not sending me Belgian chocolates. IMHO, chocolate is above politics. In heaven, people will be able to eat chocolate all the time without the harmful effects of sugar and calories.

    I definitely like lindt truffles, they’re from Switzerland which makes me feel kind of bad for eating them, but you’re right–they’re darn good in limited quantities.

    Roasted Marshmallows too are above politics. When I was camping in the Australian desert, I pulled out a pack of Marshmallows and passed them round the fire. Everyone took one, and then someone said “don’t they have gelatine in them” (this was back in my days as an environmentalist, we were actually blockading a uranium mine, eventually i got sick of the Jew bashing within the movement, but i digress), all the hippies put their marshmallows back, except one, the biggest hippy of them all, he gleefully placed the marshmallow in his mouth and said “doesn’t matter when it comes to marshmallows”.

    You can buy kosher marshmellows that don’t have gelatin (actually I think they’re made with fish gelatin). They’re usually sold around Passover but some places carry them year-round.

    You’re right, anyone who politicizes roasted marshmellows needs to chill out, bigtime.

    These were vegan hippies, I don’t think they would go for fish gelatin, probably only Tofu gelatin. The guy who said “doesn’t matter when it comes to marsh mallows” was actually the local vegan cook.

    I could have Belgium conquered for you. Get rid of the EU AND control one of the world’s major chocolate nexuses, really a priority for any conscientious dictator…

    (the second is to persuade Asia Carrera to lose the “world’s cutest dictator” line: it would just look WEAK if people thought I copied her. 😉 )
