Question of the Week

Are you ready for Black Friday? Do you even go out on Black Friday?

Answer of the Week

As a kid I don’t remember “Black Friday” being such a big deal.  I do not do Black Friday, there are just too many people out and about.  I would love to go to the LYS by my office, but I would have to drive by one of the largest malls in VA, and that traffic is horrible there on a good day.
