lights out last night at 22:22.22. had to wait from 22:20.37 to hit it right, but it seemed worth it b/c good dreams are priceless, eh?

headline from the local news financial expert this morning: retailers are cutting prices to boost sales numbers. on the first hand, duh-honkus. they always cut prices after xmas, and if you are not yet trained like a drooling pooch to respond to pre-xmas prices by waiting for post-xmas prices, then there's just no helping you at this point. on the second hand, if they cut prices, how does that boost sales? i have never really understood this sales philosophy. if you cut your prices in 1/2, then you have to sell 2x as much to break even, and if you are already having trouble selling, how does having to sell 2x as much help? i realize with lower prices, you will sell more, but will you sell 2x as much? i doubt it. i am fairly certain it is all a scam of some sort.
