Deep thoughts about Black Friday.

Surely you’ve heard by now of the Wal-Mart employee in Long Island who was trampled to death by the crowd when the doors opened on Friday. Because people are so eager to start celebrating the birth of Jesus, after all. Right?

I can’t decide who’s the most asshole-ish.

Both of my dogs have personality issues that make me want to fight them with my fists even though I love them. Sunny’s greatest achievement is mastering precisely when to stalk away while someone is trying to pet her, such that that someone feels utterly rejected and worthless. Maggie’s finest skill is barking [...]
