Default Are you full?

It seems to me that everyone is either way to full from all the food they ate over Thanksgiving weekend or you are to busy shopping and working to psot online.

Where is everyone? We have less than a handful of new threads this week.

What gives?

That is a good question, I have 42 retail consumer electronic webs sites cranking, we are taking about 200 orders per hour and just over 175 emails yesterday alone. I know the retail guys and gals are working long hours. I wonder were the rest are at?
