"A glutton is one who raids the icebox for a cure for spiritual malnutrition."

Damn it, Buechner.  Take all the joy out of my chocolate binges. Geez . . . as if I didn’t feel bad enough when I grabbed the Chunky Monkey from the freezer before I read your comment.

Don’t you hate it when people hit you right between the eyes with a two-by-four?
