Black Friday Evolution

Time to understand the media's greatest lie.  Preliminary estimates.  

Here's the exercise.  Use a search engine and look for news "black friday results" and sort by most recent.  This is my google result .  Of course this will change over time but as of mid day Saturday the list looks like the Clinton Press Corps faced with a scandal.  Early reports include Walmart and Target releasing results on Friday.  

A mere 24 hours later an the reports are "tepid." 


I've been out 3-4 times.  I've never seen it so "tepid."  I blame the shutdown.  ;)

WalMart being the only one reporting records isn't a good thing.

Is this the year that Radio Shack goes the way of SNL's Scotch Tape store?

TJandTheBear,

It could be worse. eBay could be reporting 8-track tapes. Pun intended. ;)

Please Note: These tapes are from 35 to 45 years old. Some of the tapes have had the pads and foil splices replaced and some have not. It will be the seller's responsibility to check the tape prior to playing to determine if pads or splice need replacement.
