oh noes

Not too much going on; I've been really sleepy today and now I'm kind of not, which is stupid timing. I suck at Wii baseball and haven't drawn anything yet this break. annathepiper and I did go out and buy a bunch of gifts downtown yesterday, though, which is good. I still have to get more, though - but fortunately we aren't doing any more gift exchanges for another several days, so I've got time for things ordered to come in, yay.

More Money Than Taste, which is not their title but would have been mine. It's an article taking apart am extremely expensive chocolatier's self-produced mythos. If you don't know much about chocolate (like me - I know I like it but haven't thought of it too much beyond that ^_^ ), it also seems to be a good primer on the basics of chocolate.

Sony is getting fined for shipping involuntary-install rootkits on music CDs, but not really enough as far as I'm concerned. Still, it's a start.

My Peculiar Aristocratic Title is: Her Most Serene Highness Lady Dara the Formidable of Leighton in the Bucket Get your Peculiar Aristocratic Title

The Peach Random Gentle Love Master (RGLMf)     Playful, kind, and well-loved, you are The Peach.     For such a warm-hearted, generous person, you're surprisingly experienced in both love and sex. We credit your spontaneous side; you tend to live in the moment, and you don't get bogged down by inhibitions like most women your age. If you see something wonderful, you confidently embrace it. Your exact opposite: The Nymph Deliberate Brutal Sex Dreamer     You are a fun flirt and an instant sweetheart, but our guess is you're becoming more selective about long-term love. It's getting tougher for you to become permanently attached; and a girl who's in a different place emotionally might misunderstand your early enthusiasm. You can wreck someone simply by enjoying her.     Your ideal mate is adventurous and giving, like you. But not overly intense.

Ha! My 32-type dating test said the Peach is one of the types I should consider ...

Forgive me whilst I ROFL at the complete and utter *PWNAGE* of Noka on the article above (Cliff's Notes version: Noka is essentially repackaging chocolate refined by a French chocolate maker with very little other than re-melting/repackaging and is charging around a 1000 to 4000% markup--on bars you can buy from the original maker for far, far cheaper and of actually higher quality (http://www.chocosphere.com/cgi-bin/webstore/web_store.cgi?page=/Products/bonnat.html&cart_id=%%cart_id%%)).

And I actually was *not* aware of Chocosphere before this article. At least I have a place to get good chocolate now besides Whole Foods, World Market and the local Fresh Market, LOL :3 (Especially since my beloved Catherine's--which was run by an honest-to-God-and-straight-out-of-Brussels Belgian lady--is no more *snif*)

Very interesting article on the chocolate. Thank you!
