			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="prbodycopy">(New York City) &#8211; Ever attentive to his stomach&#8217;s desires, Micah Laaker spent last evening at the New York Chocolate Show 2000. The show, billed as the unification of &quot;around forty American and international exhibitors, artists, detailers, pastry chefs, master chocolate makers and writers,&quot; proved quite overrated. Mr. Laaker noted several sacrilegious uses of chocolate, including a grossly anatomically incorrect model of an eagle and a tattered chocolate beaded dress that appeared to have spent several decades in a musty trunk.</p>
<p class="prbodycopy">Mr. Laaker and his date were then marauded by an overly large (seemingly due to chocolate consumption) booth attendant. This gentleman began hawking his chocolate-stirring wares and, noting their age (and thus youthful &quot;hip&quot; factor), encouraged them to visit his Internet-based chocolate wonderland: chocolatesomethingorother.com.</p>
<p class="prbodycopy">(As one can read, Mr. Laaker didn&#8217;t bother to commit the URL to memory.)</p>
<p class="prbodycopy">The evening ended with a jovial mockery of &quot;Magda, The Chocolate Reader&#8482;,&quot; a New Age guru able to read an individual&#8217;s future from the settlings of chocolate. The booth had attracted several lonely spinsters, eager to glean their upcoming achievements from a bohemian seer in front of a cocoa-crusted Tupperware bowl.</p>
