I just looked at your link.

I see Elmo is still red. From your original post, I thought his fur color would have been changed.

I did not see any reference to President Obama.

Someone's hate-o-meter is going into overdrive.

My family owns six retail stores in the malls in southern California. I have been working on black Friday for 4 years straight. I DO enjoy working on black Friday, especially thinking about I can retire before I turn 32

I only need to work for three more years, then I can retire !

You never really retire. You think you do. But you never do. I technically retired when I sold my first business at 26. But then you realize that you have so much money that you need to manage it. After a while, you realize you want to work to improve society or innovate something. It's no longer about the money.

Well, that is another story and not the "retirement" I was referring to.

I have trust fund and I started investing when I was 18.

Or on "black friday"
Or on the following Saturday
AND, I'm not too fond of shopping on that Sunday, either.
On Monday, most people are back to work, and it MIGHT be fairly safe to go to town.

If you can't say Washington Redskins then why not protest Black Friday? Racist!
I mean whites only on the washing machine at the laundry mat is bad enough!
