Cookies for Veterans

Monday is Veterans Day. There will be no school for some kids and no work for some.
Well, it is day where all the shopping places like Kohl, Target,Ross ,JC Penney and Macy are starting to have holidays sales with 30% to 75% OFF. Great time to start your Christmas Shopping. Actually, Thanksgiving Day is still about 2 weeks away. I thought Sales only start on Black Friday.But, why do Americans act so crazy, everyone only go shopping on that day and you have to get up so early in the cold and freezing morning?, some waited in line for 2 hours before the shops open for business.And they would push and fight for just one particular to or game box.After that you have to stand in line ,another 2 hours to pay for your merchandise. I guess this is one weird American Custom.
So for tomorrow Veterans special Fortune cookies say
"You have a Quiet and unobtrusive nature" This is true, for I am always a queit person, although I love to socialise and have a lot of friends. I always find it hard to carry a long conversation, I will run out of subjects, do not know what to say. I have a few friends who always can carry a long and lenghty conversation, they can alway find something to chat or argue with you,any kind of subjects. And they are always popular and interesting in a crowd, but sometimes can be annoying .For they can chat and chat nonstop .Does this mean they want attention ? But they will never bored a party.Right?

Veterans day is typically when all of the major companies start sales for the holidays. I don't complain about the sales, but I don't understand how they use this holiday as a starting point for the holiday sales. Not sure what they were thinking.
