Now that confectioners are reducing the size of chocolate bars and such, (so that they don't have to increase the purchase price thereof,) would one of those Highland Toffees now be known as a "Little Big Horn?" I can see the battle at the counter now over the new smaller bar being the same price as last year when it was much bigger.

Thread drift strikes again.......
