Hello everyone. :2wave:

I find that I treat "Black Fridays" as any other day of week; I have done nothing out of the ordinary in regards to shopping today.
 
:2wave: to you too!

I can't imagine shopping on Black Friday (beyond grocery essentials, I mean). I'm guessing that more flu bugs will be spread this weekend than the rest of the year, and this is a bargain not worth it!
 
This about sums it up.....

Oh beautiful, for spacious skies,
For amber waves of grain,
For purple mountain majesties,
...
 


More footage of what appears to be a National Geographic special on violence amongst members of a troop of rabid chimpanzees fighting over an animal carcass in the African jungle.

Wait. No. Nevermind. It's holiday shopping in America. My mistake.
 
I worked all morning until around 1pm so that some others in the office could take off for the Friday craze. I did my shopping online last night (Thursday),most stores had the same prices online Thursday as they did in the stores on Friday (with the exception of a few things). I got some really good deals and didn't purchase anything today.
 
I've never gone shopping on Black Friday. Too many people, too much stupidity and I dislike shopping anyway.
 
Are they like the pictures a DP poster recently took of his wife with his infrared deer cam?

Uh, no. Nobody here to take a pic with an infared cam. :lol:

Mine are regular pictures.
 
Internet is slow today, lots of sites are not working for me....but DP is working well enough, guess there are more internet shoppers than there are internet debaters...
