Shop til you drop (and get trampled)
[Archived in DVD Players, Dvd Players Sale, Entry]
The Patriette on 2003/11/30:
„Nov. 29 — A mob of shoppers rushing for a sale on DVD players trampled the first woman in line and knocked her unconscious as they scrambled for the shelves at a Wal-Mart Supercenter. Patricia VanLester had her eye on a $29 DVD player, but when the siren blared at 6 a.m. Friday announcing the start to the post-Thanksgiving sale, the 41-year-old was knocked to the ground by the frenzy of shoppers behind her.“

„No, I could NEVER make it in the NHL and would never want to (nor do I think women should start strappin' on their skates for the pros just yet), but I could still get the puck to fly far and fast and I managed avoid getting killed for the better part of a couple of years when I played hockey with and against the guys. And I played because I love the sport - I loved the speed and cold air and the strategy involved in moving the puck across the ice. I did not play for women's lib or to prove a stupid point that women are just like men (they are NOT and thank the Lord for that) - I played because it was fun.“http://www.thepatriette.com/archives/ cat_great_googily_moogily.html#000223 - Cached - Similar Pages

„In the end the officials were bored with the situation and opened the gates to the trains for everybody, which ended up in a cool race against time and other passengers - til the last square inch of the train was packed. I never saw such a thing, not even in Madagascar or Indonesia - but it was funny, espacially when you are a bit pissed...

„While all the other kids go out to play at National Pop League in Glasgow (and phone to check I'm definately not coming - thus waking me up from a cosy snuggle in bed, like Michael Grant did) I am here, at home, glad to be indoors.“http://retrosec.blogspot.com/ 2002_10_20_retrosec_archive.html - Cached - Similar Pages
„The Persian will gladly accept affection, but does not often seek it out. Her loving and patient nature makes her an ideal housemate while her stress-free nature will allow her to make friends with whoever stops by. The Persian’s greatest past time is grooming her thick, tangle-prone fur, but it’s worth the effort, because she always looks fabulous!“http://blog.hazydaze.net/archives/2002_11.html - Cached - Similar Pages
„Still, maybe RIM wasn't quite as innovative as we thought, as a company called NTP based in Virginia recently won a $53 million judgement against RIM and a barring of selling their products in the U.S. Glad that news didn't spoil Christensen's book... but then, it'd probably already gone to press, eh?“http://www.aurorawdc.com/ci/2003_11.html#000061 - Cached - Similar Pages
