I love chocolate too. Yumm.. and I can't give it up as well. iPod? I don't have any yet but I am planning to buy one.

Interesting stats and demographics. I'd give up chocolate for blogging. But hopefully not for too long!

I would definitely give up chocolate to keep my blog, but it would be a struggle!

A more interesting and deeper question for me is what it would take for me to give up the internet entirely. That is the million dollar question.

I believe I would give up my car and my cellphone combined before I would give up internet.
