Hmmm.  MMMMmmmmm.  

I would be carefull of the Oreo theory.  We don't know how much stock
Mr. Gerstner may still have in his previous employer. Could be a plot.
(And besides, my Wife was a Keebler Elf for 15 years.  I'm still not
allowed to eat Nabisco stuff!)

Now I HAVE been doing a long term study on M&Ms.  Specifically Peanut
M&Ms.  Monster bag size (SAM's club-bulk everything and super heavy duty
carts that hold 500+lbs, do you know how heavy MtDew is?).  My study
shows creativity up (When the M&M Man's Arm broke we were able to repair
him with a rubber band sling in mere moments).  It also shows that as
long as there's M&Ms, the complaints are tolerated. ie "That Crummy W95,
(KaChing[M&M Man Dispensing M&Ms])  We just gotta MMMMBMMMMMMM.....". I
won't give the NON M&M version as it may implicate me in something I'd
rather not have made public....  Several of you out there know of my
love for W95!
