Black Friday

The day after Thanksgiving
is the biggest shopping day
of the year.

Why do the retailers
call it Black Friday?
I am guessing that
people get a chance
to spend his/her
entire paycheck.

But what is so black
about Friday? I mean
it is not a moody one;
the clouds do not
turn black on the
Friday after Thanksgiving.
In fact, it is just the
opposite.

There are so many sales
deals that people are
willing to become a
pack of wildebeests
just to claim their
prize (or not).

Right now, I am flipping
through the sales ads
in the local newspaper.

Finally, there are certain
items that I want to
purchase; I think to myself,
should I go and buy the
items with a pack of
blood-thirsty hyenas or
should I keep my sanity?

I will wait until a blizzard
hit my town; it will give me
an excuse to max out
my credit card--without
standing in line!
