Let me see if I've gotten this correctly..

Black Friday is supposedly the day after Thanksgiving. And that happens to be today. Whether or not Canadians had a black Friday thing after their Thanksgiving day last month I don't know. (Maybe I should ask FanFan.. ;-)

Anyway... Thanksgiving Day is (almost) an exclusive American holiday (ok - Canada was already mentioned but there's something similar in Grenada, Netherlands, Liberia, and the Aussies on Norfolk Island..)

But not in the UK. Since it seems those on your side of the pond don't have anything to be thankful for, why is it they have a black Friday over there??? ;-)

I realize that the Mail is closely akin to our National Inquirer, but none the less they report thusly...

Black Friday frenzy turns violent as shoppers fight over bargains
