After going to the "Black Friday" sales for 9 years in a row, it has become a tradition. My siblings and I, decided that this year it should be no different. We found that the deals were pretty good at Office Depot, and set up shop 14 hours before the doors opened. (to make sure we were in the front of the line) Tyler W. had come about a half a hour before us, and was playing games on his computer when we showed up.
Twelve hours to go, we stand poised and ready.
We found this shelter, and took it over.
Steve, gives the thumbs up, showing that it was safe and there were no bears in the tent.
Tyler, giving the thumbs up, shows us that the store will be opening in 11 hours!
Upon seeing this guy with shorts in 20 degree weather, we knew we weren't the craziest people out that night.
Maybe not...
Joe decides to take a nap with his eyes open.
Beth, demonstrates the look of a tired person better than Joe.
It's On sale? we must need it!
Ski goggles in the store; a necessity and very classy!
Knowing that I was in distress trying to create a funny cartoon, Michael from Heritage Photography and also known from a previous post, has come to the rescue!
From Idea, to completed product, Michael comes through in a big way. Next we have the redesign with the necessary quotes. Michael found some good quotes from Ben's blog post about getting the most out of the rides at Elitches. Finally, the finished product that I am able to steal and put my signature on. THANKS MICHAEL!
This week I have a very poor quality cartoon.. I drew up one that I don't feel comfortable posting, so all that come looking for a funny cartoon this week shall be disappointed. (and no, I'm not going to post the other that I drew)
We’ve all seen someone in a store. Someone talking to themselves:
“Hey, do you think we need this?” no? “Ok.”
Are these people crazy? No.
They have found the most fulfilling friendship ever possible, an imaginary one.
Many people need imaginary friends to keep them sane, and this is why I believe that everyone should have one.
A made up statistic from the internet, says that 47.3% of all people have imaginary friends. I was talking to my imaginary friend, Bob, and he was telling me that imaginary friends are a much needed part of today’s society.
How do I get an imaginary friend? Well, you just need to go looking..I found mine when I was all alone at the park one day. Bob sat down next to me and began telling me all the things that I could be doing instead of talking to myself. You may find yours somewhere else, but I would suggest to find em before all the good ones are gone.
Reasons to have an imaginary friend
1.Wikipedia says, it has been theorized that children with imaginary companions may develop language skills and retain knowledge faster than children without them.
2.Never be alone!
3.Never have to answer a question without counsel
4.Make sure that you aren't crazy by asking your imaginary friend.
5.Practice for a Job interview
6.Live vicariously through the life of your imaginary friend
The problem today is that not enough people have imaginary friends, thus creating the problem!The opposition would like you to think that having an imaginary friend is stupid, or even worse, crazy. Government stats say, normal Life expectancy is 77.8 years. What they won’t tell you is that people that have imaginary friends usually live till they are much older!
Just visualize how much better the world would be if only everyone had an imaginary friend. People could get rid of their troublesome friends and just keep one. Your imaginary friend would always have the right words at the right time. Just remember that only you have the power to get your imaginary friend. Everyone needs friends, and if we all had imaginary ones life would be great!
