Hey! Who ate my chocolate?
Two squares are missing. Was it you? If so, did you enjoy?
Did my chocolate (or the last chocolate you enjoyed) have anything in it like nuts or crisped rice or raisins, etc? No, it was a bar of white chocolate, and they don't muck it up with other stuff.
Or what about an extra flavor like mint or orange or so on? Yeck
Extra Credit from the Clairvoyance Department: Have you known or heard of anyone who had an unexplained feeling about something that came true?
Hunches, intuition, etc.? I think two different things can be at work. First, the mind collects bit and pieces of info, and at a certain point discovers or makes up a pattern - in the first case you have something that comes true, in the second you arrive at a conspiracy theory. On the other hand, we can have yearnings that are very strong and when one of them comes true we may feel that we "knew" this was going to happen, when in fact we were hoping it would.

Foodie Questions:
Speaking of, what do you want with or on your waffles? Pass, but they're okay. I haven't had one in a long time.

Please, give any details, observations or mental meanderings you care to share: Was out in California back in the 70's, and got a feeling that something was wrong with my mom and heard her calling me in my head, so I got to a pay phone to call home and my dad told me my mom was sick and she was calling for me.

Have you ever stepped on a Lego with a bare foot? Yes
What else have you stepped on barefoot and lived to regret? Not me, but when I was 7 or 8 my father stepped on a dead wasp and got stung. For that reason I don't go barefoot outside in the yard anymore. It was near a big bush that gets flowers every summer and attracts them and bees by the dozen.
