Gary, that was on purpose....(or Rick posted in the wrong thread!).
I've Always Wondered...... what happened to the potato salad? Mark, I can't wait any longer, I'm getting hungry, I'm off to the kitchen to make a baloney sandwich. Come to think of it though, I don't even like baloney.

Why do red colors clash but blue ones don't?

Another thread resurrection:
There's been a flap over stores opening on Thanksgiving for their Black Friday sales.
I've always wondered:
Why doesn't some store just start their "Black Friday" sale on the weekend before?
They would avoid competing with everyone else (You can't be at Sears AND Home Depot AND Best Buy at 5am on Friday morning) and get "the jump" on the other stores.
Not to mention, they could actually be closed on Thanksgiving day and let their employees have the day off.
I know that Black Friday is the traditional start to Christmas shopping, but it's not like it's such a classic tradition that it can't be changed.
What's so special about great sales having to be in that 12 hour (then 24 hour and now 36 hour) time period?

Some places are taking you up on that idea, starting early this year. From Amazon.com:
----
Black Friday 2012 Deals Are Here
You shouldn't have to stand in a long line to get a great deal. We've been searching for the best Black Friday deals everywhere--including Black Friday deals other stores are planning--so we can bring them to you even earlier.

Newegg has been doing a Black November sale: http://promotions.newegg.com/black-november/2012/index.htmlNow, they're doing even better deals for a 72-hour pre-Friday sale.

Yes to both Amazon and Newegg; I'm talking B&M chains that "open" for Black Friday sales.

Target - the brick and mortar kind - had that Avengers Bluray for $15 as part of an early Black Friday promo, but it wasn't in 3-D, so it would have disappointed Sean and Cat. But animated ScarJo wants you to buy it anyway.
