I wish I had Hugh's knack for saying such reassuring things. I try, but I just don't have his gifts.

You know, I was having to shop for a gift earlier for someone I don't even remember who but, this one store I was in had this big display of old style candies, and they had Necco wafers! Remember Necco wafers? I used to love those, with those crazy flavors like chocolate. Some people think Smarties are better but they're wrong, and I bring that up because I once had an argument about that with someone while working on The Music Man, and I insisted that there really wasn't an argument as they were two completely different candies, but he insisted they were close enough that one had to choose. I eventually said it was a stupid conversation and I don't think we talked much for the rest of the run. Anyway, about the candy, I bought like one of everything to give Hugh a taste of what American candy used to be like. (I've never bought so much candy in my life, but some things were in all different flavors -- like Ring Pops! -- and I didn't have time to decide.)

Candy necklaces are neat too.
