Friday on KHWL: Ho Ho Ho and Ha Ha Ha

Hello and welcome back. You are listening to KHWL on the Blogger dial and the current Lemming News Time is forty-nine minutes after the hour which means its time for “It’s Friday!” KHWL’s weekly round up of the week and celebration of the weekend to come. And now, here’s your host: Kanrei

(crickets chirping)

Hello and thank you. Please, sit down. A stand ovation is just too much, well, ok, just for a few more seconds. Thank you, thank you. No, you rock and I mean that sincerely. Yes, yes, thank you. I love you too.

So, here we are at Friday once again and now is that time where the fun really begins. You see, we are now a little over just one week away from Christmas and tis the season to stress and worry, fa-la-la-la-la, la-la, la, la. I am not sure what the “Tickle Me Elmo” of 2007 is, but I can guarantee that there are exactly fifteen thousand more parents shopping for it than there are “it” on the shelves. I think I may go to Toys R Us this weekend, not to buy anything, but to enjoy the carnage. Joy to the world and peace on Earth, but the toy isle at Target is every man for himself.

Now then, I know all my fellow Lemmings got their shopping done long ago and will not be suffering this weekend in the rush. This is why I can happily enjoy the chaos. It imagine it will be quite a bit like the day before a hurricane hits Miami: long lines of humorless people waiting to purchase what they can since what they came for sold out long ago. I usually go enjoy the chaos then as well since I know those secret stores that always have what I want. Kind of like with Christmas shopping: I never panic because I know those secret stores that always stocked with everything I want. Well, that and I don’t know many people so my gift list is really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really short.

Have a great weekend. I did have a political thing on my mind, but we can save that for another day. This is Friday after all.

KHWL Lemming News Time is one minute after the hour.

Woohoo! Shopping!

Which reminds me, it's "only a few days for free shipping from Amazon" left.
