What better way to commemorate the events of 9/11—paintings of horses notwithstanding—than in the form of a premium milk chocolate coin?

... apart from maybe this window display:

People who've been round to mine will recognise the chocolate coin. The recent death of my fridge forced me to keep the coin, which I've been jealously preserving from melting ever since my friend brought it over from the States, at room temperature. This meant it lost its fine layer of condensation and finally became scannable. It remains one of my favourite possessions.

The coin is, indeed, magnificent.

Why does your "horses" link point to my LJ?

Except now it just points to yours. I'm confused - what's going on?

Because it's an anchor tag with an empty href.

Aha. Excuse my ignorance.

I don't know what (http://webofevil.livejournal.com/178635.html) you're all talking about. Ahem.

I would remind you that the man I bought it off (at my local crappy New York deli) said "the chocolate tastes great"

Prompting me to wonder if, rather liked dismembering a jelly baby, he ate one of the twin towers first, perhaps in the order they came down. Or did he leave them un-nibbled out of respect?

What are you doing on the internets? Get off, you stateside vagabond!

Ooooh, and I must remember to take a picture of my favourite thing ever. A deeply respectful plastic twin towers bubble blowing kit. The TV mast thingy pulls out to reveal the bubble blower. And it has a string to wear it around your neck.

Magnificent! Where can I get one? At Inappropriate'R'Us?

And does it have the words "We Shall Remember Them" emblazoned on the front in comforting 3D bubble letters? Perhaps being spoken by a loveable plastic frog?
