Woolies vs. Frankie's... do they really look so much alike?

I thought I would jump onto this bandwagon right about now, given the amount of attention that the subject is getting.
Hey, it will do my visitor stats good at the very least :)
What I will not do, is go into the finer details of who copied what, and how they may or may not have done the same thing...

Will we see the iPad 3 in Feb 2012? Seriously?
Historically, Apple have been very good at releasing new iterations of their products at a rapid-fire rate.
It makes sense that they would want to keep competitors on their toes by doing this.
The problem with this (and this is not only my opinion - just Google it), is that each new product version is not really ground-breaking, so much as it is a general improvement over the outgoing version.

Ditching Facebook and waiting for something to happen on Google+...
A few years ago, I deleted my Facebook. It
was a bold move, but I haven’t once regretted it.
Ok, I

Have you ever tasted Hershey's chocolate...?

I love chocolate. Let me get that out of the way right off the bat.
Cadbury's, Ferrero, Lindt, Toblerone, Nestle... I am now busy drooling on my keyboard, and these are just the readily available retail brands... don't even get me started on the crazy "gourmet" chocolate brands out there.

This is why snow globes should be made out of plastic...
"Oy! Where's my globe gone?"
You would think that ornaments would be made tough - after all, they will eventually find their home somewhere in plain sight for you show off to family and friends alike.
Add to that the logistics of getting said ornaments from their place of purchase, to your home...
