F**k H&H Gregg. They opened one up here in Winchester, and my wife wanted to go see it. So i took her. We didnt make it 5 steps in the door and i saw all the red-shirted salesmen eyeing us like hungry wolves. We never got to look at anything in peace because they wouldn't leave us alone. One guy was cool, he recognized me and said "hey hatchetman" with a thumbs up, but the rest i was ready to just tell them to F**k off.

I have never been back there since.

But my neighbor is in charge of security for the mall here, i mean he is from corporate and oversees the security, and he told me of how last year, the mall started having people surround it around 3 AM, and they went to open a back door at one of the stores so the mall employees could get in discreetly, but someone from the crowd saw the door open and they rushed it, flocking to innards of the mall like a bunch of zombies.

In the commotion he said an elderly man who was on oxygen and using a walker (What the hell was he doing in that line anyway???), was knocked over, and trampled, crushing one of the arteries in his leg, and my neighbor, who was a former police officer, pushed on his leg and minimized the blood loss until the paramedics could get there.

This year he said they aren't taking any chances. Local Police are on hand to assist with crowd control, and the Winchester Armory was nice enough to send over about half a dozen reservists to help. It's a damn shame i'm not in anymore because i would have no problem cracking the skull of somebody who jumped the barricade with my trusty ASP...

Seriously be careful folks...it gets rough out there starting tomorrow...

Haha i appreciate the humor. And that's true. And i try and keep the peace with her and go along with it. Walmart was more of a moral issue lol.

But I assure you i'm not camped out at walmart. But i will update you guys tonight when i'm on the way home, because last year at this time people were already pitching tents at Kohls and everything else nearby lol.

Its very rare that my wife ever ask me to go shoping but thats because I took care of that when we first started dating. When we first started dating she dragged me shopping and I made her so miserable shopping that after a few times she quit asking me to go. We do go shopping some but she knows not to drag me out for too long. If its a situation where she wants to hit the mall and has no choice but for me to go she will drop me off at the bar to wait for her. God I Love my wife.
