I’m a firm believer in knowing a little about a lot. People who know too much about one thing concern me, as I’m convinced that they missed out on some important knowledge about other things. Like they may know the square root of 234423534 but they couldn’t tell you the price of White Knight’s depending on your location, store chain and time of year.

I have come to the realisation that I am allergic to chocolate. Yeah. It’s like telling a heroin junky that he is allergic to the heroin that he loves so much. This is pretty crazy news, especially for me- the guy who needs atleast 500 grams of sugar to get through the day unscathed. Now I have to diminish my White Knight habit, which is probably the hardest part. We had some good times together, and I can honestly say that you, White Knight, are among a handful of people I would trust with my life or let use my new fanta yo-yo. So if you receive chocolate in the mail, consider it a great gift, and cherish it with you life (or yo-yo, depending on what you value more).

It’s Friday and I really couldn’t be bother writing this on Sunday. Yeah, that’s right…I can already predict that Sunday I am going to be feeling even more lethargic than I do right now. I guess I can only hope that on Sunday I have a lunch that even half as good as the one I just had. A turkey sandwich washed down with a 600ml Kyneton and a Whit Knight for dessert. I am living the dream.

Today’s post goes out to Venezuela. Dalia Contreras Rivero tied for bronze in the 49kg Taekwondo to claim their sole medal at the beijing Olympics. Good for her! I bet she kinda feels like I do today…I mean it’s Monday and that sucks, and well she won a bronze. No, that makes no sense, she is an olympic medallist and I have nothing except this empty White Knight packet and minty breath.

The week barrels along. It’s about time for a recap of my recent Olympic holiday but I am so perturbed with the thought of it ending. Instead I want to share with you some ideas I’ve got on my mind grapes.  Not so much ideas as they are ‘hairbrain’ ideas, or internet-based schemes if you will. Firstly, I want to set up White Knight Appreciation Society, for lovers of the minty goodness that is the White Knight. I think the first action for that would be a facebook group, just to test the waters, and then I could make the website and begin the viral marketing. White Knight’s will be the new Curly Wurly. If you don’t know what they are, do yourself a flavour and go to a Woolies (not Seven Hills) and buy one. NOW. I will wait for you.

Hi, my name is Something, and I have been completely addicted to mint for the last 3 months. My daily lunch regularly consists of sandwich/burger, mint pattie, white knight x 2. I feel ashamed, but I am hoping that there are others out there that share my pain. The other day I thought about stealing my co-workers birthday money just to get a fix. I may have some kind of iron/zinc deficiency. Yes, that’s what it is. I guess my body needs to do some more mining!

I am sitting eating a White Knight and thinking about yesterday. I went to my mates going away BBQ where I was promised to be the guest of honour (sole reason for going) and was later told that this was not the case. So as you can imagine I was already quite ‘put-out’ . The icing on the cake came when my friend’s mother complimented me by saying I was ‘relatively human’. Thanks Mrs Garner, I thought we had something special going on.
