Are they kidding...?

I went out tonite to get a haircut (remember haircuts Howie?)..anyway, I was walking into get the haircut and noticed a whole line of people in front of a video store. They were standing outside in the cold...obviously waiting for something [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif[/img]

So I asked the young lady who trims my locks what was going on...she told me they had been there since 10am this morning waiting to buy a Play Station 4 gizmo... [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif[/img] So, I inquired how much one of these electronic pacifiers sells for...she told me $400 - $500 plus all the games. The average person waiting in line, did I mention in the cold?...were going to drop about $800 on this stuff. Now these weren't kids...they were &quot;working age&quot; adults [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img] , about 20 of them who would collectively spend about $16K [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/blush.gif[/img]

So, I obviously don't appreciate the entertainment value of these modern electronic devices and what they mean to people. Good news.. the recession is over! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img]...if folks can spend that kind of
money on toys we are definitely out of the woods financially in the USA [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/flag.gif[/img]

Now, what ever happened to Lincoln Logs [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif[/img]
