'Black' Friday, I think it's good that those people have a day for themselves so they can buy the things cheap that we don't want.

Yes and yes. What's your point? Good. I am delighted that people with limited income can watch the telly and that people with limited taste buds can drink coffee... win/win.  |

Anyone familiar with the work of Dickens will be reminded of the scene in which the peasants rush to consume wine that had been spilled on the street:
All the people within reach had suspended their business, or their idleness, to run to the spot and drink the wine. The rough, irregular stones of the street, pointing every way, and designed, one might have thought, expressly to lame all living creatures that approached them, had dammed it into little pools; these were surrounded, each by its own jostling group or crowd, according to its size. Some men kneeled down, made scoops of their two hands joined, and sipped, or tried to help women, who bent over their shoulders, to sip, before the wine had all run out between their fingers. Others, men and women, dipped in the puddles with little mugs of mutilated earthenware, or even with handkerchiefs from women’s heads, which were squeezed dry into infants’ mouths; others made small mud-embankments, to stem the wine as it ran; others, directed by lookers-on up at high windows, darted here and there, to cut off little streams of wine that started away in new directions; others devoted themselves to the sodden and lee-dyed pieces of the cask, licking, and even champing the moister wine-rotted fragments with eager relish. There was no drainage to carry off the wine, and not only did it all get taken up, but so much mud got taken up along with it, that there might have been a scavenger in the street, if anybody acquainted with it could have believed in such a miraculous presence. |

Christmas shopping .. Be warned..
Warning about eBay Be careful what you buy on eBay. If you buy stuff on line, check out the seller carefully. A friend has just spent £295 plus VAT on a penis enlarger. The bastards sent him a magnifying glass. The only instructions were "Do not use in sunlight." |

^^^ i heard of someone who bought an up to date joke book on ebay. He should have read the small print because the date was 1876!

When we were born with no possession,
the love received was our concession, no worries, no fears, no troubles, no fuss. In mother's arms we put our trust. But as we grew, we looked and craved, and all too soon became enslaved. The more we saw, the more we wanted. Our quest for more became undaunted. Our thirst for more could not be quenched. The more we grasped, the tighter we clenched. We scampered and gathered and gathered to hoard, possessions became our master and lord. And when we're old with our treasures all heaped, a sad example of what greed has reaped. Our fists still clenched in a grasping motion, till at our death, when our hands are opened. |
