Black Friday

I'm thinking there is little reason to get caught up in the mess of "Black Friday"...due to the invention of online shopping...which is exactly the origin of the term...back in Philadelphia by the cops there...referring to the amount of foot and car traffic that totally clogged up the city...mid 60's...then, it got sucked up by the media and it emerged as a new motto for businesses actually making money right after Thanksgiving, with the "sales" and crazy opening hours used...me?...I would go for the free donuts and coffee...but, not now...there are plenty of great deals online...unless...you have to get out there...

Did you get your fill of football yesterday?  I didn't get to see the Pack/Lion game...as I thought that Detroit would get the upset...but...the Lions imploded, their Oregonian tackle got thrown out for a stupid act, the replacement RB got injured, and the team had way too many turnovers...to beat the Packers...by the way, Detroit is on a free fall... worse than the Bolts...the Cowboys found enough to win at the buzzer...in the Har-bowl....the elder beat the youngin'....kind of boooorrring....and talk about bad luck, Texas A & M, lost another game in the final stanza...after scoring the go ahead TD with just a couple of minutes left...albeit to a horrible call that favored the Longhorns...boo...

How was your turkey?  We went to Ruth's Chris....packed in like sardines...the meal was marginal (rolled turkey)...the service was great...the view awesome...there were no dishes to wash...there was no mess to clean up...all in all, a push...well, favors go to the restaurant...should have had the rib eye...missed our boy and his gurl...

Does Costco celebrate BF?  We are thinking about heading over there...maybe a huge mistake...maybe participate, not celebrate...and get this...our gift to each other, is that we are going to have the condo painted...right now it is stark, clean white...it will be a major change...and we already have started to question each other's sanity...connecting on the right colors may be a test on our marriage skills...

Christmas decorations today, and, well...it's that time of year...

BREAKING NEWS...Lamar Odom, a LA Laker forward...who recently married Khloe...and is still hitched...not the other one...is reportedly signing to a hoop contract with the Besiktas Team in Turkey, in this non-season of the NBA...the rumor is that there is going to be a new E Show...the Kardashians Feast In Turkey...

Costco is open. Dont paint the place, it looks fantastic! Signs of a cancelled season indeed.
