Dear Whoopi Goldberg, just so you know, it's not called "Black Friday" because the world wants to take a hit at black people, it's called Black Friday because way back in the "olden" days when store owners had to write down losses and profits in pen the profits were always done in BLACK (and losses in red). The day after Thanksgiving was always such a popular day to go shopping so the stores cash sheets were always rows and rows of black pen because they made such a big profit.
This is why it's called Black Friday, not 'African American' Friday, it has nothing to do with race.

time for a change
It's time for a change to my blog. I've left it for a year, entirely because it started out as a school assignment - hence all the "ecology and design" entries - but I've decided that I have more to say than will fit on my facebook status! As my hubby always reminds me, I am a facebook-addict.
hmmm, nothing like trading one addiction for another!
