Surely they would re-stock for this evening's Pre-Black Friday online sale that started tonight at 9:00 p.m. CST? I logged in at 8:30 p.m. so I could quickly place my order and be done with. I submitted my purchase at 9:01 p.m. but got that little thing that goes around and around and the following message:
We're having trouble with your request. Please wait a moment and then try again.
The item that was out of stock last week was still out of stock. It was a 40" TV for the kitchen where I usually watch my Spurs games while I wash dishes or clean up after dinner. I currently have an old 26" LED television that I bought when television first went digital while I was visiting in Houston and unable to watch my Colombian Telenovelas (soap operas). At $99.00 it was a steal and with my poor eyesight would have made a big difference in enjoying my Spurs games.
The other item was a Kodak Pixpro Long Zoom Digital Camera for $99.00 as I have wanted to replace my $35.00 Polaroid Digital Camera for years after my good camera got fried as it sat inside my tent in Terlingua. I was successful in purchasing this item, as I suppose most people use their cell phones for picture taking these days.

My 2011 hot tent that fried my camera |
It took me 24 minutes to place my order but I am sure I was competing against millions of online shoppers this evening.
Good night. May you all have Terlingua Dreams.

Tonight's game against the Memphis Grizzlies was a total sham...the referees did not call that last minute foul which was the same foul they had just finished calling against us. We got robbed!!!
