Its the sad truth, Don. Many females threaten to shave their heads or plant facial tats, just to tick off their parents. How stupid do you have to be? Talk about having regrets down the road. Spoiled and entitled brats, oh yea!

And Black Friday will be another glorious day of fighting over products in the stores. I'll be looking for all the videos showing the crazies at Wally World and have a laugh.

I had to do a little grocery shopping/errands yesterday and already witnessed the nutjobs in the stores and roads. So I will hole up for the weekend and work on some home projects. Maybe even shovel some snow if it happens to be necessary.

Perhaps I am old fashioned like you, but whatever happened to showing your Thanks by helping others who are less fortunate, like those thousands of folks in Western North Carolina? People who lost everything?

Enjoy your Thanksgiving and grab all the gusto while you can. God is good, no matter what.

Thank you Donald, Although I do not wish to get caught up in the rudiments of the world, I can always think of many blessings to be thankful for. If irony is the father of humor, then who is it's mother? When we were young and strong, and someone posed a direct threat to us sometimes we would reply; "You and whose army". In contemporary society, there are literally "troops of robbers" who are willing to commit any atrocity to further their own industry. Do you suppose that is the real reason why "Rest Homes" forbid videotaping and interviews with residents? Under "threat of arrest? Where are the Patrick Henry's and Lysander Spooner's in our generation? I will not despair of what we have lost, so much as what we have gained in understanding the barbarity and callousness of the shallow and superficial "virtue signalling" mediated maxims though illogical Hegelian Dialectics. I rejoice in knowing that which has a beginning, also has an end.
