Black Friday

Dear Victorious,

What do you think of "Black Friday," the day after Thanksgiving when people go shopping for Christmas gifts?

Dear Nadine,

To be honest, I never really think about it. I also don't participate in it. I suppose I could preach against it, but I doubt that it's really any worse than any of the other materialistic ways that we desecrate Christmas. If you're going to shop ... and if the prices are better that day ... and if you enjoy the hustle and bustle of the crowds --- then I say go and have at it. Me? I try to make it a habit to spend the day after Thanksgiving doing something outdoors in a woods somewhere!
