It seemed like a good idea at the time

There was an article in the Washington Post last week that interested me. I asked my friend Romy, who lives near D.C., to mail me that section of the paper (I wanted a paper copy in addition to the online version). Independently, we both thought it would be an excellent idea to surprise me with a chocolate.

Chocolate in the mail. In August. Not such a good idea.

Question for people who know more about file formats than I do: When I saved the original image I've posted here it was 37K in Photoshop Elements. When I emailed it to Romy the message was 372K. Within the Finder the file is 96K. The Typepad file manager tells me the file is 42K. What is going on that I'm not understanding?

on the plus side, your paper now smells like chocolate.
