I LOVE the holiday season, except for all the shopping (and the lack of snow here in Phoenix). Yet, the capitalist in me knows the national economy needs a big boost this year from all of those shopped & awed Black Friday consumers. So I'll mute my annual rant about the perils of rampant consumerism and the media’s symbiotic complicity in it. Instead, I’ll just say remember humorist Bill Bryson’s first rule of consumerism as you go forth and spend: Never buy anything you can't make your children carry.
