Black Friday is aptly named. The day after Thanksgiving when shoppers are enticed to rise at unholy hours by stores whose merchandise is available at sale prices. This puts the merchants' ledgers sturdily in the black. Humanity ceases to be the dominant species on the planet and becomes a herd animal, trampling hapless salespeople in their efforts to get a good deal. Let me pull back a curtain and present you with a glimpse of a few other reasons this particular Friday might be called "Black".

Not having the benefit of my father's memories of them as he passed away in 1999, I must rely on my own.

Know, O prince, that before the years when texters sank into open man holes and the rise of the sequels of Lucas, there was an Age undreamed of, when glittering Kingdoms lay spread across the world like cracker crumbs after a sneeze. Hither came Titanicus the Barbarian, blonde haired, blue eyed, battle axe in hand, a fighter, arm wrestler, small of wit but having great hair, understanding few jokes but laughing at them anyway, to tread the golden thrones of the world under his flip flopped feet. Let me tell you of the days of mid to high adventure.
