Happy Thanksgiving!

[BLiZZaRD]

A nice little holiday to the US persons around here! Have a wonderful turkey day!

What do you give thanks for? Myself, I give thanks for my work, to have money to support the family, the family for giving me a reason to work, and the computer and all it's components that make it possible for me to have a worthwhile experience and meet so many different people.

ohh.. that's so mushy! Heh.

Have a good day everyone!

Also hope things are well for our German friends on their Buss und Bettag, our Lebanese friends for Independence Day, and our Saint Lucians for Feast of St Cecilia.

And of course anyone else I missed celebrating or remembering today!

my friend will be lining up at Best Buy at 4am. (I won't.)

Lol, i will never shop on black friday... to many slow moving people... i consider myself skilled and thankful I don't run into too many people when i am in a hurry... lol i hate that how people like stop and you run into them lol... well, thanks giving was good for me, afterwords we always play monopoly... and i always buy everything at the end of the game... then its like 4 hours into the game and i am like "OK! YOU KNOW WHAT!! THIS GAME STINKS*!" *denotes that i use another word not appropriate for Dynamic Drive...*

I didn't want to shop on Black Friday, but I needed a plumbing supplies item and the hardware store was closed on Thanksgiving Day when the problem surfaced (pun intended - think about it). And there were a few staples I was interested in procuring, so I ventured forth.

Anyways, the traffic was surprising light. I don't think we can attribute this entirely to President Bush having opened restricted airspace, so I am concerned that this may be the first 'red' Black Friday in quite some time here in the US of A.

I never have before but I was going to this friday on my way back from my relatives... however I got conned into doing some moving and cleaning of their garage so once again I didnt participate; We've all heard the nightmare stories, so its probably best I didnt make it out

I used to go all the time in the past, and it is insane. I have seen mobs of people literally throw fists and elbows just to get the last tooth brush on the shelf (ok, maybe not a tooth brush, but you get what I'm saying). The good side about it is that there are a ton of great deals on electronics and whatnot. I remember getting 5 DVD players for $30 about 6 years ago.

[boxxertrumps]

5 DVD players for $30

Why would anyone need 5 DVD players?

[djr33]

I assume they were individually $30, and he gave them out to 5 people as presents, for christmas. The whole idea of the sale ;)

[thetestingsite]

Well, you are right about the presents part, but the total of them were for $30. Each one was $6, and they were great quality products.
