Hi! Happy Black Friday! - a photo on Flickriver

            The photo can suggest whatever you like, but I like to think of it as people clamouring to get the best bargains! According to Wikipedia,"The day's name originated in Philadelphia, where it originally was used to describe the heavy and disruptive pedestrian and vehicle traffic that would occur on the day after Thanksgiving.[6][7] Use of the term started before 1961 and began to see broader use outside Philadelphia around 1975. Later an alternative explanation was made: that retailers traditionally operated at a financial loss ("in the red") from January through November, and "Black Friday" indicates the point at which retailers begin to turn a profit, or "in the black".[6][8] Contrary to what many believed, Black Friday did not originate from the sales of slaves on the day after Thanksgiving."


"If we shadows have offended,
 Think but this, and all is mended—
 That you have but slumbered here
 While these visions did appear." A Midsummer Night's Dream William Shakespeare.
