Unless you are under 2 years old - when said biscuit broken both across and lengthways means you now actually have FOUR biscuits! Quantity over quality.
Got it. It definitely has that sense of European Romantic transcendence (man confronting/overcoming/being overwhelmed by the majesty of nature, especially the sea, storms, the sky, or mountains).

Even when subsequently broken the correct way, telling yourself it's no different. You're fooling no one,least of all yourself.

Ah, man, I haven't had a Scotch Finger for two years. I'm gonna get onto that!
By the way, where's that pic from? Looks like a cover I saw on a copy of Candide, but, er, cheesier somehow.
Julie- ah, the naivete of youth.
Stuart- It's a cropped version of 'The Wanderer' by an awesome German painter called Caspar David Freidrich.

It was René I was thinking of, by the way, not Candide. I've done a search on Amazon, but I can't find the book cover. I wouldn't be surprised if it were the very same image.
yeah, it's pretty famous and well-used. I think there may be a can of cat food that uses the picture too.
