Bad news for CB....Macy's has announced they are closing 68 stores.
And laying off 10,000 employees, also once again Sears and K'Mart are reducing the fat but if not being operated by a Hedge Fund (throwing away other peoples money) they would have long ago both been closed.  Khol's is next it sounds like.   

Typical Hedge Fund methodology Sears/K'Mart sold all their premium quality real estate to the Hedge Fund that owns them and now leases it back from them........... yeah and when they finally shut down  the hedge fund is left owning all the real estate basically free.
Gotta figure out how to get a piece of that action.

Morning, muchachos.
TWHS. Good morning, Bret.
Mornin, Mr. Mayor. Probably not going to be able to make Cigarfest this year. Turns out I may have a prior obligation, but checking.
It's ok, we didn't really take you seriously anyway
Besides, he was half delirious from lack of sleep yesterday while he was posting.
And the other half of him is delirious all the time.

In the world of electronics The Consumer Electronics Show (except consumers are not allowed in - private party like the IPCPR where they want your lobbying donations but stay the fuk away from our party) is kicking off in Las Vegas.

Here is a new TV being unveiled:

And I JUST bought a 4k tv!
Stay Calm!!!!  Rest assured that new 4k cost a hell of a lot less than this one will.
Haha, no doubt. And the tv I just replaced is the same one we bought when we bought our house 11.5 years ago. I'm definitely not gonna be changing again anytime soon.
Took me forever to replace my 36" Sony CRT, which was still a perfectly good TV.  Should be just as long with this Panasonic.  Can't understand it....Panasonic has some of the best TV's available and now they don't even make them??? :o

See there, one post got us two pages with only 4 people here............Before I retire I am teaching y'all how to do more with less!
Something with which you have lots of experience, I'm sure.
Not you again before daylight ???  WTF
Same fuk'n deal. Lotta schitt going on. Sleep patterns disrupted. Should get realigned tonight.
TWSS?
No, if she'd said it, it would have been, "Should get straightened out tonight."
I defer to Mark.
Though a close call, I'm afraid raz is correct in this case.  But there's no shame in trying and failing (TWSS)
And in both cases, lies.
You speaketh the truth.

I have a Panasonic plasma which is a great tv but the answer to your situation is pretty simple, they can't make the high quality stuff they offered cheap enough to sell it at a profit.

That's why I went so long replacing it, it still works perfectly fine. Sometimes, I get the score box cut off if I'm watching on certain channels since it's obviously not widescreen, but the picture is still good.
