Looks like Black Friday will be held on Thursday this year.

The ads come in the newspaper tomorrow, so there will not be much time to think about it before heading out in the middle of the night.

This year I don't have anything special in mind. I already got the HDTV last year, and I am not planning on getting a new TV in at least 10 years.

Walmart has a $248 computer, which is tempting... but I really don't need a new computer, either.

So, I'm thinking a set of glass storage bowls, which can wait until Friday during daylight.

Happy Black "Friday", too, everyone.

This Canadian was forced to decline a Thankgiving dinner at the the home of my American DIL.

 

The plan was for youngest son and wife who are both teachers in the Fraser Valley to pick up hubby and I at 3:30 PM for the short drive across the line.  However ... business in Vancouver is where it is at tomorrow and ... construction on a new Fraser River crossing implies that "rush hour" traffic on the "freeway" begins at 8:00 AM and ends about 7:00 PM.  We would never make it home in time.  Maybe a Japanese dinner at the home of hubby's sister and BIL will suffice.

Happy Thanksgiving to all American Monkeys!

not sure what to think about the Natalie Wood case being reopened..it was always rather suspicious to me how it all happened..not that I think that anyone harmed her on purpose, but it just seemed strange...
I find it hard to believe that she would be messing with the dinghy late at night.....everyone knew she had an immense fear of the water.  Hinky!

I agree...especially late at night. It is so dark on the water at night..scary..

When this happened I thought Wagner killed her . . . not based on anything other than MOO.



I thought so too, Sister. I felt that something wasn't right and wondered if maybe he had killed her accidentally, but I never did really buy the account of what happened.

Me too and because of her death, I have never really cared for Wagner or Walken. 

Me too, and me either.

Moderators:

I was posting in the Karen Swift thead, and there is something wrong with the page, or my post. I didn't edit it, so maybe something from the original page. It's a CNN transcript.

Please delete it, if you have the same problem viewing it as I do.

Thanks in advance.

 

Moossee, I'm not having any problems viewing the transcript you posted, and you included the link.  I can't find anything wrong with it from what I can see. 

Thanks for deleting it. It freaked me out.

I thought I broke this message board.

 



I deleted it and Klaas fixed it.  Thanks fearless leader!

Thank you.

Hubby and I did have a enjoyable day.  No anticipated traffic jams on the freeway in and out Vancouver!!  I am wiped nevertheless.  I must be getting old.

Maybe son and DIL will bring us some leftover turkey, stuffing and cranberries from their American Thanksgiving dinner.  It will be tomorrow's lunch between two slices of toasted sourdough bread with a cuppa tea.

Bearlyhere ... I hope your day was good.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING 2011 FROM SCARED MONKEYS
<snipped>

I would be remiss if I did not interject some humor into the Scared Monkeys’ Thanksgiving Day wish. In honor of what is one of the top 5 funniest comedy shows ever of all time … from WKRP in Cincinnati, “As God as my witness, I thought turkeys could fly”.

Follow up on a story I posted in 2009


Bobbi Guerrette is experiencing the sounds of Thanksgiving for the first time thanks to two new ears

Posted Nov. 24, 2011
MARS HILL, Maine — The sounds of Thanksgiving — the whir of the electric knife to cut the turkey, the crack of the wishbone being separated, and the snap of fresh green beans for the casserole — are just as plentiful as the sights and smells. And for the first time in her life, Bobbi Guerrette is hearing those sounds.

Her family is giving thanks this holiday season for the end of a journey that began when 5-year-old Bobbi was born with bilateral microtia with atresia, a condition that essentially means she was born without ears. In Bobbi’s case, one of her ears was not open and the other didn’t function.

But thanks to the generosity of anonymous donors, Bobbi now has two functioning ears.

“She is currently hearing with both ears and is really surprised when she hears new sounds,” her mother, Jamie Guerrette, said on Wednesday. “Before the surgeries, she didn’t wear her hearing aid at night, so she hears sounds during the night now that she hasn’t heard before. She just told me that hearing Christmas bells is so pretty. It is interesting to her and to us as we watch her learn how her ears work.”
