Idiots....

this kind of thing happens yearly in India
when they are having a religious pilgrimage

and here it's happening over the material things we worship .....not so much in celebrating the birth of
JC or it's religious significance.

What have we done to Christmas??? That is why I stay home today! These early bird shopping specials should end...they always get stupid because people are inherently ignorant, selfish, stupid and greedy!!!

I sat smugly at my desk today and laughed when it started POURING around midday. All I could think about was ALL those bargain hounds fighting for parking spaces, shopping carts and the last of .....whatever the big ticket item is this year.

I did the "black friday" thing about 4 or 5 years ago when the stores opened early at 7 or 8 am, and made out like a bandit.
Home Depot had a chainsaw on sale for a decent price, and I wanted/needed to get one. Well, the geniuses at HD failed to display the merchandise properly, so when I picked up the chainsaw package and had them scan it, I ended up (when I got home) finding out that the shipping package was shrink wrap around 2 saws, not 1.
I ended up with a 2 for 1 deal.

That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.
