Relief Is In Sight From Terror, Terror, Terror.....

In two days - the cable news show personalities that have focused 24/7 on terror, terror, terror - will be taking Thursday Thanksgiving Day through Sunday off for a holiday hiatus. You can include the Congress (House & Senate) and the candidates running for the nomination of their party. Yes - we'll get some relief from the Klown Kar.

President Obama will be pardoning a turkey or two and everyone will be asked what they are thankful for around the dinner table.

I'll be thankful for this hiatus!!!!!!

Merchandising. Unbridled consumerism coupled with competition, aka Black Friday. Can't have the unpleasantness of Terra intruding on seasonal profits, can we?
