On my way to work this morning I past our one and only mall at 4:30 a.m. and couldn't believe the full parking lot, 'dem peeples be nuts!
Pushing, shoving, trampling, spitting, cursing ... they can have it, I'll stay home and eat some more turkey. Can you imagine how many dings, dents and paint scrapes are going to happen due to wayward shopping carts today?

Have 'yall ever noticed whenever you get out on the boat how everybody in a boat waves to you as if you knew 'em forever yet you get the same folks in a vehicle and they'll wave you a finger and a curse in a millisecond? Cracks me up.

The boat ramp is THE BEST place to watch dunderheads. We saw a ton of them this past summer.

Well, not so much because I was new at boating, but because the dunderhead that I bought the old boat from had taken the steering apart and somehow reversed it. Trying to get off of the launch ramp with backwards steering is challenging let me tell you. Yep yep yep, I'm sure that was quite entertaining. Me all red faced and all, fighting to back out off of the dock.
At least I can laugh about it now, but how freakin embarrassing at the time. It was hard to anticipate which way to turn when your looking over your shoulder, already compensating for the reversed view, then throw in a backwards steering mechanism.
Well, I spent this black friday at work, where it's nice and safe. My wife said that this morning in town, it was dead. Even at the dreaded Wallmart. Who'd a thunk it? Of course, by noon it had become a zoo. Go figure. I suppose everyone thought it would be a zoo first thing in the morning so they stayed home.
