Time with the families? Pfft, don't kid yourselves. You're going to spend your days in line outside Target like the rest of the United States of Consumerism.
my roomate's half-sister makes $82 hourly on the internet. She has been without work for six months but last month her income was $14632 just working on the internet for a few hours. Here's the site to read more...== BIT40,COM ==
Its that time of year again, when people celebrate false history and other things they have limited understanding of.
But hey, at least its good for the economy.
Happy Whateveryoucelebrate to everyone!
killerT,
Often I have observed others and perhaps I am guilty of this too, people tend to rewrite history as they look back on their past and they often believe this new version of history.
People are kind of a little crazy huh, lol! ;)
"Time with the families? Pfft, don't kid yourselves. You're going to spend your days in line outside Target like the rest of the United States of Consumerism."
Nope not me. Those people are crazy. No item is worth all that hassle. The people who camp outside of the store overnight are also nuts. Stores shouldn't even be open on Thanksgiving; it's a shame. The only way I'd get out at 3 am and wait hours upon hours on a line to buy something is if someone was giving a $15,000 discount on a new car I wanted to buy. Many of these sales aren't even very good. You can get the same stuff all year around for the same prices....but yeah those people are nuts.
How in the world did the Mayan’s know we lose our Twinkies????
This is so bizarre………… woe-a!
