Black Friday

[footfootfoot]

When I hear the term "consumer price index" I see that we have become a country of consumers, not citizens.

The health of our country is measured in how much crap we buy, not our involvement in our respective communities. It's a simple thing, really.

Suppose the news commented on how many cozy blankies were made by moms for their daughters this week, or how many kids and parents went camping, hunting, fishing together this week or how many elderly people were helped out by their younger neighbors this week?

I guarantee, mindless sheep that we are, that after a short while people would be trying to out do one another with acts of community building. I'd bet crime would go down too.

That being said, nice score on the last xbox, monster. Just think though, if you were up that early you probably could have gotten a nice buck. Just sayin'
