For many of us, its time to go back to work after a couple of days of turkey, football and hopefully relaxing.
Today is the first day of deer season (with guns, right?). I’m sure you hunters can’t be happy that we have no snow. Or is that a good thing? Can you tell I’ve never been hunting? Most importantly, please don’t shoot yourself and don’t shoot at the people in orange.
Did you go shopping Friday? If so, what was your experience? I hit up the WalMart about 11 am and parked two spots from the door and got in and out with no issues, even picking up the last Lulu kitty in the store. The rest of the shopping will be done at Amazon. Brick and mortar = stunned.
Today is also Cyber Monday, where so-called experts say everyone getting back to work today will spend time buying stuff online. Personally, I think its a bit of a crock – as more and more online stores ran big sales Friday (the aforementioned Amazon included). Have you found any good sales today worth checking out?
Erie native and ErieBlogs contributor David had a nice blog post this weekend, thinking back to movie theaters in Erie.
I loved Cinema World because it was always dimly lit, had this red carpeted interior that must of been hot stuff when it was built in the 70s, and these crazy, curving ramps to get in the theater.
I still think if someone had like $30-50k they could reopen the theater in the West Erie Plaza and make it a great indie and art house. I of course don’t have that kind of dough, but I’d sure frequent it (I’d even volunteer to build the website.)

Dennis Dixon, Pittsburgh’s 3rd string QB, played about as well as anyone could have hoped, throwing for 1 touchdown and running for another, but a pick in overtime helped the Ravens win.
