Happy Thanksgiving, all in America. I wonder if anyone even thinks about what Thanksgiving was originally intended to be anymore?
For many, Thanksgiving is all about getting ready for Black Friday. Heck, I can’t claim to be unaffected by this myself, honestly. =:) If anything, I was pretty caught up in the excitement of trying to get a sneak peek at the deals before they came out. =:) But, now that they have come out, and I’ve spent a couple of hours looking through the advertisements that landed in my driveway, cleverly disguised as the morning newspaper, I think it’s all kind of silly.
That’s not to say that we of the Kasper clan won’t be venturing out tomorrow morning at the ungodly hour of 6:00 a.m., to try our first attempt at navigating through the dreaded Black Friday rush. =:D
But it does give me pause to think that perhaps we as the American people have completely lost touch with reality.
Now go eat yer Turkey….
