2. fuck you fucker
Donald Rumsfeld is giving the president his daily briefing. He concludes by saying: "Yesterday, 3 Brazilian soldiers were killed."

"OH NO!" the President exclaims. "That's terrible!"

His staff sits stunned at this display of emotion, nervously watching as the President sits, head in hands.

Finally, the President looks up and asks, "How many is a brazillion?"































:P

7. Well since it is sub zero wind chill...
And the trend has gone away from malls and toward open air shopping....

I'm not even considering it.....

Besides, I already bought the gift for Mrs. WCGreen, My BIL, so it's just sis, two nieces and MIL....

8. No way will I get up to get in line at 5 a.m.
Try to find parking and fight the crowds. You have to be crazy. I did it one year at Toys R Us to get a certain toy for my grandson. Never again.

9. I may have to make a quick run for Pepsi, but I think most people will
be doing other shopping so the grocery store shouldn't be too bad. :)

Other than that, I'm not budging from the warmth of my apartment.

11. I hate shopping any time of year
My Christmas shopping consists of one trip the week or two before chritmas at Barnes and Noble. Every fucking body gets a book. The adults get whatever their interest is books. The kids get nicer, pricier ones. The only exception this year is my grandson in Hawaii, who is getting a book and some Yu-gi-oh stuff. And my 3 month old, newer grandson who is going to get a anti-bush tee shirt and a book. Takes a day, I'm done.

13. No way!
It's sad to see the way the corporations manipulate and even sadder to see the people that let themselves be manipulated.

I think we should rename the day after T-day as Manipulation Madness Day.

14. I'm not
But my Mom, my Grandma, and my Aunt are. Believe it or not they always look forward to this day. I guess it's a sort of "The girls can get together and get away from the obnoxious men" type deal. More power to them . . . I doubt I'll even venture out of my room that day :).

16. I never do that. But I have to work tomorrow anyway. I am
missing that day off, which I normally spend baking cakes for a charity auction the following weekend, but I will be glad of the money when the paycheck comes.

22. Nah
Saturday though...our plans are to take my grandbaby to the mall to get her picture with Santa.
I've completed almost all of my shopping.
Sooo...the fun begins. I will start decorating my house on Friday.
That has always been my "Day After Thanksgiving" tradition, not shopping.
Gonna suck just a tad though...my hedges are a little higher than I want, so gonna have to trim em up before I can light them up.

23. Absolutely
Some friends and I are going on our yearly pilgrimage to Garden Ridge's Thanksgiving night sale to shop off dinner.

Nap for a couple hours.

I'll be somewhere by 5:00 a.m. I don't know where yet, but I'll be out there. I love the entire chaotic mess. :)
