Tonight I was dipping into a large bag of Hawkin’s Cheezies
and I found one shaped like an at-sign (@) and one shaped
like a tapered club.

I know the Dagda is said to have either a staff or club, which
deals death from one end and healing from the other.
If it is a tapered club, which end deals healing? I think
it is the pointy end but I am not sure.

Anyway, I didn’t save them, but ate them. :-)
