Headlines

1. Sesame Street's 40th anniversary.
Yipee! Imagine how old Big Bird must be by now...! Jk, really though, the idea for an educational television program is amazing. How better to help our country than educate our future?

2. "Walmart to stay open 24 hours on Black Friday" USAToday.com
Really Walmart? What made you think of that? What a clever way to make sure none of your "associates" get trampled this year. This headline makes me sad. It reminds me how greedy our society is. This poor "associate" lost his life because someone wanted a good deal on a flatscreen. Really? Is that the value of human life today? And nothing has changed. Walmart, a multi-national, enormously profitable company can't think of a better solution than staying open longer? Really? That will solve nothing. Hmm...I wonder if this idea had anyhitng to do with the fact that if they stay open longer they can make more money...? Nah. Corporate greed was definately not the driving force in this decision.
