Thank you, KQ. I will send you a bag of virtual potato chips for Valentine's Day, with a fine ketchup to dip them in.

Choobak, it's a line from If I Had a Million Dollars by the Canadian band Barenaked Ladies. They say, "If I had a million dollars, we wouldn't have to eat Kraft Dinner" (a cheap, unsophisticated instant food) and then they say: "But we would eat Kraft Dinner." "Of course we would, we'd just eat more." "And buy all of the fanciest ketchups," (again making fun of cheap, non-sophisticated food) "Like Dijon ketchup... mmmmmm."
Coincidentally, I used this song when I was learning French grammar in high school so I could remember how to employ the conditional. I translated it into French like this: "Si j'avais un million de dollars, Je t'achèterais une maison, Et si j'avais un million de dollars, Je t'achèterais des meubles pour ta maison..."

My favorite valentine poem I gave to all my teachers...
"Would you be my Valentine And raise the meager grade of mine? But if my heart don't turn your head Would you accept a ten instead?"
The Hatrack version....
Would you be my Valentine And add your post count up with mine And if we multiply by three We may equal to Dagonee
