My wife went  out at 7am with a neighbor, She ended up saving 200 bucks on a kayak, and 50% off fisher price toys.  But for the most part the sales were equal to columbus day etc.

Oh shtein, that's right, You're a daddy now.  You get the grace period as my wife did the same Toys R 'Us stampede thing for a few years.

Merry Christmas!

Jesus what is wrong with people?!

Wanna off yourself? Go right ahead. Killing your kids along with you? Disgusting.

Good friend of mine (he was a sniper in the Marines) wife's father was killed in his home two years ago. The trial just ended and all involved were convicted. It's on the front page of the Philly Inquirer and Philly.com this morning.

Speechless. . .

This should not shock you.  The American Taliban/Republicans would outlaw science and require Bible Study if they could get away with it.

[Rome]

people being ignorant doesn't necessarily shock me.  1 out of 3 americans not believing an indisputable scientific fact does.  i'm silly that way.

[Diomedes]

And here I was all this time, thinking you had a good bead on how actually depraved the American people are...when in fact you live in some kind of goddamn fantasy land where it's shocking news that conservatives in mass numbers don't believe in science.

I hope Rome never finds out what large percentage of Americans believe in Angels.

[Geowhizzer]

I hope Rome never finds out what large percentage of Americans believe in Angels.

What, you don't?  They're not very good, though - overpaid and aging players.

[Rome]

I know how awful people are.  I'm sure there's a good number of people who believe water really isn't wet either.

1 in 3 shocks the hell out of me, though.   

[Diomedes]

Yeah well it doesn't shock the rest of us, Hippy Star-eyes.

[Rome]

100,000,000+ don't buy science.

USA!  USA!  USA!
