Speaking of chocolate factories ... this is truth imitating fiction.

What a way to go!
We never sing alone.
Augustus Gloop.
That's his name!
This guy was just Joe the chocolate stirrer who worked for a chocolate company that supplied Hershey!
Poor man. I wonder if you can 'tread chocolate'. Probably not. I think he would have been ok if it wasn't for the paddle thing.
Somebody just died falling into a vat of chocolate. Was in the the news yesterday. Ugh. Death by chocolate for real.
That was what we were talking about.
Victor get out of that vat of chocolate and clean the chocholate out of your ears! (tee hee)
Duh - maybe I should have checked the link first!
Victor, Did you hear that Michael Jackson died? ;^)
No! Did the media report it???
They arekeeping the coverage low key.
As they normally do.
I wonder how the "real"news people live with themselves.
All three?
We probably don't know their names because they are not entertainers.
They probably retired in disgust. Or in Florida.
May be a town named Disgust Florida.
Probably too many NYers there.
I'm heading out to garden. See you later
Michael Jackson died? you're kidding!!! When?????
Carrie, I'm almost certain I heard something about it.
Whaddya know....
Do you remember seeing "Thriller" for the first time? I let my eldest daughter see it. She was four at the time - it really frightened her. We had company that night, and it was this big event on Much Music (Canadian MTV). So, I took DD to her bedroom and had her pretend she was the director and she had to tell me to act scary. And of course, I wasn't very scary, so she had to tell me I wasn't very scary and to do it better. And then I explained that is how they made the video; that the dancers and singers were just nice people like mommy and daddy and there was a director who told them to pretend to be scary and other people using cameras etc. Letting her be the director seemed to help.
Anyway - we were all very pleased in Canada 'cause we saw Thriller before it was on MTV ^_^
(Wouldn't that be your elder daughter? Whoops, wrong thread!)
Yes - eldest daughter. ^_^
You only have two, right?
I'm back - yes, only two children.
Welcome back Michaela. You will have to start a thread with all the news and how your garden is doing.
Welcome back and happy September!
