Video Sandbox 89:: BAH! HUMBUG!

The older that I become, the more I find Xmas intolerable. Now, I'm no Socrates but it seems to me to be fairly unlikely that a species that has a majority of VCRs flashing '12:00,' is not a likely candidate to figure out how everything began. But that's just me. Fortunately for us, merchants have figured out what Xmas is all about and how we should celebrate the day. Shopping. Yes, just like Macaholics, tens of thousands wander zombie-like to the doors of WalMart's and other countless emporiums at hours only owls usually see. There they stand in lines, nay, mobs, for hours just to be the first ones to get their mitts on lead-laced do-dads from China and two-for-one sales on family sized bags of Doritos. Oh, Happy Day! Enough of that, let us speak of this week's show. I haven't a clue as to what it is about. Which is quite suspect, seeing as I created it and so on. I'll pay more attention next time.
