So for the first time ever, I decided to try a Black Friday sale. Toys R Us, midnight. 1/4 mile line. 4 police units, one with K-9 unit, for crowd control. After walking around making fun of people and coming up with fun scenarios for inciting a riot (“hey, I heard they have zhu zhu pets in the back”), zoon and I came home empty handed. What the crap?? The next person who tells me this recession is just like the Great Depression is gonna get a sock to the head. There were bread lines back then, not lines for Barbie and Lego. Any country that has the time and expendable income to put on the spectacle we observed last night needs to quit whining about how hard life is. Hrumph grumble grumble kidsthesedays hrumph
But then I don’t get to whine and moan Besides everything I wanted online was sold out, mainly Nerf weapons and scooters.
I thought it was high time I actually participated in this truly American phenomenon. Back in high school my sister and I liked to go and walk around the parking lot at the maul mall with empty sacks pretending we were going to our car so people would follow us thinking they’d get a space. But that doesn’t really count as participating.
Michael Caine has a new movie coming out called HARRY BROWN. I have heard it being called “DEATH WISH in London.” He plays a widowed Royal Marine vet living in London who goes on a vigilante killing spree after the death of his friend and the police’s inability to solve the case. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OVOSfHFNlcI
If you’ve read the book, you know that the book he’s reading is the Bible.
I read that to the boys. Hard going for a read aloud, but I’m kinda proud that we made it through and my kids kinda liked it.

And people call me crazy for having 8 kids.
Tracy… you and Zoon are such the dedicated followers of fashion.
The lines at Amazon and QVC are way shorter.

Indeed Scott. If only we can get Miles Austin to do that regularly. We’ve got the Giants next week… I’m worried about the Saints game — the acid test.
Going shopping and using my IPhone.
Any Florida Threedoniaites have links to any Tiger Woods coverage?
