Newton comes a-runnin' for the fresh, delicious taste of pre-processed chicken-parts.

Coded like a man possessed today. The day went by like the dickens as a result.

My headlight went very dim on the bike home tonight... I wonder if there's an energy-efficient way to charge my light batteries via the pedal power used while cycling? Would an alternator work effectively? I've got the batteries recharging in the bay as I type this.

Oh, that my brother had an Amazon wish list. It'd make shopping for him so much simpler.


I profited from Kel's loss... I didn't know that they'd decide to send me a replacement bag.

Original Message

Dear Sir or Madam:
Yesterday, my sister got a bag of your peanut lover's chex mix, (which I could not find on your product page). To her colossal dismay, there was but a lone peanut, lost amid the assorted other crunchy flotsam and jetsam in the bag. For a product named "peanut lover's", it is sorely lacking in the starring ingredient. I felt strongly enough about this issue to write your company.
Sincerely,
Scott von Berg

Microwave popcorn is a wonderful treat this time of night... I rarely pick it up, but the grocery ghosts led me to it last weekend. Kudos on a fine choice, phantom impulse!

D'oh... I missed seeing my sweetie online! ding-dong-dangit!

now that's a good idea.

I would send you peanuts just because your letter is so adorably written.

"the starring ingredient"
