Fuck. I mean it's less than 2 hours from Christmas and what are the Wife and I doing? Battling with 403 errors, server timeouts and traffic overflows. Brilliant idea Future Shop/Best Buy, lets put out the biggest sale of the year on the one night when you know absolutely no one is going to be working in your server for anything less than 3 times their regular salary. The Boxing Day sale started at 8 tonight... theoretically. Except at 8 it said it hadn't started yet, then at 8:30 pages stopped responding, at 9:00 it banned our IP addresses and told us to contact the web admin. Now you can't even load the home page. The Wife managed to get a digital camera into her cart, but took so many attempts to check out the server logged her off and all was lost. I attempted to add a big screen TV, only to finally make it to my cart and find 7000 dollars worht of HDTV goodnesses. I'm a materialistic person... but I have no need for 6 32" LCD TVs. Anyway if this keeps up December 26th will find me at the door of Future Shop with Thermos of hot chocolate in hand at 5:00AM in the morning.
I only have an hour and a half to get this freakin' TV. Then I'm heading to Midnight mass at the local Church. Despite my materialism I'm still all about keeping the "Christ" in Christmas. Although I may have taken his name in vain once or twice this evening. Oh and once again. Merry Christmas
Except to you Future Shop, it's Merry-go-your-self to you

Myself, I'm all about taking the "Christ" out, and putting the "Gift" in.

By the way we did finally have some success with BestBuy and Future Shope.
I'm a little pissed with Blogger censoring my ass though >:/

Yeah, I'd be interested to hear how they censored you as well.
