early happy thanksgiving
 

I have one of those jobs where we don't work on holidays, so I'll be at home in bed or something instead of posting a thanksgiving card like I usually do.

so here's a c&v from the toothpaste for dinner newsletter, 'cause I love drew.


-----
OKAY, now that that is out of the way, IT IS ALMOST THANKSGIVING AND
CHRISTMAS. listen up here, you do not want to be going out to the store
on "black friday". that is the worst idea i have ever heard. i do not
think much of wal-mart as it is, but READERS OF MY NOTIFYLIST, PLEASE
DO NOT DIE BY GETTING TRAMPLED AT WAL-MART. the bargains are not worth
the terror. if you die at wal-mart, at your funeral, they will be
lowering your casket down into the grave, and with every creak of the
winch, your mourners will see the wal-mart prices rolling back in their
minds and they'll think, "man this funeral sucks. i wish i had a
twenty-dollar dvd player to help me grieve." and they'll go to wal-mart
and get trampled too.

LISTEN TO ME HERE!! DO NOT SEND YOUR FAMILY TO A DISCOUNT-PRICED
GRAVE!!! be reasonable. shop online. nobody i know is getting anything
that does not come from amazon or another website. that is just the way
it is going to be. don't be the fool standing at the "things engraved"
booth on christmas eve getting some kind of clock with someone's name
on it! be the kind of person to do all their christmas shopping from
their computer at work. they don't pay you enough for holidays, or give
you enough vacation, so spend a little "on the clock" time doing some
"online shopping". if you have a large family, stay late. it's
overtime, dude. time and a half.
