	FREEEEEEEEe FREE! 
 
	Well, I'm not free (gonna cost ya, buddy), but that's going to be 
my motto this summer: "I'm not going to pay alot for this muf.. I mean.. 
Manhattan life."  I intend to find every opportunity for free 
entertainment, greatly discounted tickets and stuff.  I intend to find 
every thrift shop in Manhattan.   
 
	If you see someone roaming the streets yelling "It's free! It's 
all free!" you will know I have completed my quest. 
 
	In other news, I've heard about an impending cocoa shortage.  I 
wonder if this will give people a taste of what a lack of petroleum or 
other such essential things (of my generation at least -- no oil crisis 
that _I_ can remember).  So El Nino makes the Romaine go away for awhile, 
big deal.  So there's a noticeable lack of Girl Scout Cookies during the 
summer months - who cares.  So the cabs go away for a day in the city -- 
nice break. 
 
	But take away the chocolate... and... 
 
	People will really know what is meant by a drug. 
 
 
	I'm thinking about Halloween and Easter, and where's all the hot 
chocolate during winter?  And what about the Melting Pot?  No more fondu 
sets for wedding presents? 
 
	The repercussions shall be endless. 
 
	I have proclaimed. 
 
 
 
	FREEEEEEEEE!
