Over the holidays, I took some candy canes into work for people to enjoy.
I place them in a paper cup (taken from the office kitchen), and write a note telling
people to take a candy cane. Many sweet, hooked treats, were taken from the cup,
but never did I see a soul remove a cane. {It's not a riddle, I'm just trying to be fancy}.
Why did no one take one when I was there? I don't know. I just kept track of
the usage, because I do things like that.

December 5th (evening) - 2 are taken when I am not there [10 remaining]
