"Storys" = "stores", as in places you shop at. "Black Friday" is the day after (U.S.) Thanksgiving, the start of the Christmas shopping season. Since old accounting ledgers used to write losses in red and profits in black, it's called that because, well, stores are almost guaranteed to make a profit. Stores have been going nuts here, offering sales starting at 4am and such. If you ever shit in my beer, I probably won't know the difference. All beer tastes like shit to me. sb | |
