How do I love thee? Let me quantify the ways.

I really appreciate Valentine’s Day as I am head over heels in love with my wife. As a former math teacher, I often try to put my love for her in various scientific measurements.

Mathematical

In geometry I would think of my wife as being an angle that is less than 90° so I can call her acute! Hopefully, that joke wasn’t overly obtuse!

The Great Chocolate Heist

In 2017, a refrigerated trailer containing 20 tons of Nutella and Kinder Surprise eggs was stolen in the German town of Neustadt. The thieves got away with over $70,000 worth of chocolate and chocolate spread. Now all of that coffee colored confectionery treat could be considered hot chocolate.

Yes, stolen chocolate is how I decided to introduce our coming month of chocolate. Every year we celebrate February marking it as a time for everyone to indulge in one of the most beloved of sweets including chocolate-covered Oreos and Oreo truffles, chocolate peanut butter bark, and more!

Inconceivable

Our upcoming movie is The Princess Bride, but that true story above reminds me of something that someone shared with me the other day.

Public Service Announcement

It takes over 3500 bolts to assemble a car, but it only takes one nut to spread it all across the highway. Don’t drink and drive this New Year’s Eve.

The Soda counter will still close at 7PM but we will continue to hang out and have fun. I know I’m going to try and convince some of those that come to play Xia: Embers of a forsaken star, and we’re going to make sure the tower of Sauron collapses at midnight by starting the theatrical release of the Return of the King at precisely 9:13:35

It’s not so much that I brought a stone to a sword fight…

So a health insurance plan with a four letter name is actively mistreating us. They have a commercial plan that individuals and small businesses have been purchasing through the health exchanges that is making a dramatic change to their pharmacy network. They are removing independent pharmacies, like us, from their network and they have sent letters to the various people in those plans telling customers to transfer to a different pharmacy. It is worth pointing out that if you did not receive a letter, you are probably not affected.
