Reactions to Eating York Peppermint Patties

First Peppermint Patty
Why is this so fucking good? I should eat these more often. Yorks are so my favorite candy. How come its been so long since I've had one of these? Mmmm. I feel completely justified buying an entire bag.

Second Peppermint Patty
This is starting to not be so delicious. Ok, I lied, its still delicious. But its very sweet, and making my mouth burn like peppermint.

Third Peppermint Patty
Too much sugar.

Fourth Peppermint Patty
Do I really want this? I think I feel sick. I... can't... finish... ah, hell, of course I can finish it. Ick. I never want to eat a peppermint patty again.

Am I the only one to notice that Hell's Kitchen contestant Matt looks a strikingly similar to Sam the Eagle?

London is the New New York

London is looking a like New York these days. Its fast displacing New York as the center of world capital. And while New York keeps down zoning neighborhoods, London keeps building new skyscrapers. So perhaps its fitting then that early polls indicate the next mayor of London is to be a New Yorker. Boris Johnson, that funny looking newspaper man no one took very seriously, might just have pulled things off and might very well be the next mayor of London. Johnson enjoyed the good fortune of having been born a New Yorker.
