I’m a little confused by the Pride & Prejudice & Zombies trailer.

I’m pretty sure that this one – supposedly dropping three days ago – is not particularly different than the one that dropped a month ago.  What gives? Am I missing something, here?

PS: Of course I’m going to go see this goram movie.  They made the goram movie for people JUST LIKE ME.  Even if it sucks, I still have to go see it, because at least they tried.

Cyber Monday is tomorrow! (Seriously, this post has actual info in it).

I mean, sure, buy stuff on Amazon and use this link: Amazon.com.  But this is still of note.:

The first two days of the holiday sales period have netted $4.45 billion in U.S. online purchases, with mobile devices — led by smartphones — accounting for a record $1.5 billion of that amount, with $2.72 billion spent on BlackFriday and $1.73 billion on Thanksgiving. The figures come from Adobe, which has been tracking some 4,500 sites, including 80% of the top 100 retailers.

This is an improvement from last year; at least, Thanksgiving sales were and it’s estimated that Black Friday and Cyber Monday will follow suit. People do love buying their presents online these days. And go for it! …’Course, I’m biased that way.

Alan ‘Birther’ Grayson thinks Ted Cruz can’t be President.

Bless his heart: “Rep. Alan Grayson (D-Fla.) says he will file a lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of Sen. Ted Cruz’s (R-Texas) presidential bid if Cruz wins his party’s nomination.” I forget who said this, but: having the courts go out and spank a fool over stupid stunts like this would indeed be a wonderful thing for the Republic.  Alas, it’s also a subtle indication that Alan Grayson doesn’t expect to get the Democratic nomination for Senator. Not even this man is dumb enough to pull this stunt – IN FLORIDA – if there truly was a Senate seat on the line…

…OK, let me mention this 30% off sale over at Osprey Books.

THEN I’m gonna get on with the day.

Here’s the link to the site. Free shipping if you buy more than three print books…

PS: Nah, this one I don’t get a dime for.  I just figured that, if this had ME scrambling for my wallet until I realized that they took PayPal, some of YOU might feel the same…

You won’t believe how mercenary this MoeLane.com post is!

Ten hours sleep! What a concept.  Anyway, thanks to the miracle of sales four annual passes to Colonial Williamsburg turned out to be cheaper than two adult’s and two kid’s one-day, so it’s off to pick them up and a full day of dragging the kids to various historical things, in the hope that the history will rub off on them or something.  But there will be lunch and rum punch, so it’s all good.

Anyway, this is likely to be one of the few posts you see here today, and it’s frankly up in large part because of Black Friday.  If you’re in the mood to rebel against it by ordering stuff online, well.  This link will take you to Amazon.  Yup. It sure will.

See all y’all on the flip side, folks.

And Happy Thanksgiving!

Free Wi-Fi at the timeshare.  Also, dinner buffet at the Cracker Barrel, which means I get two Thanksgiving dinners out of this weekend, not one. Not to mention a birthday cake for the youngest kid, probably. Folks: have a good holiday and let it all be good. Tomorrow or Saturday is going to be plenty soon enough to start going to the races again.
