Its really upsetting to here a child beg or to say that they don't want to die. And all for the Black Friday shopping junk. How stupid or idiotic can people get. Why do the companies allow it to go this far.
Two killed at toy store
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS • November 28, 2008
PALM DESERT, Calif. — Two people were shot to death in a crowded toy store on Black Friday in a confrontation apparently involving rival groups, city officials said.
Palm Desert Councilman Jim Ferguson said police told him two men with handguns shot and killed each other. Ferguson said he asked police whether the incident was a dispute over a toy or whether it was gang-related. He said police told him they were not going to release further details until the victims’ relatives were notified.
“I think the obvious question everyone has is who takes loaded weapons into a Toys “R” Us?” he said. “I doubt it was the casual holiday shopper.”
City spokeswoman Sheila Gilligan said police told her the shooting broke out between “two groups of individuals that have a dispute with each other.”
The Palm Desert Police Department received calls of shots fired around 11:35 a.m., Riverside County sheriff’s Sgt. Dennis Gutierrez said. He said officers were still investigating what prompted the gunshots.
Immediately after the shooting, about 20 people rushed into the World Gym across the street from Toys “R” Us, the gym’s assistant manager Glenn Splain told The Associated Press in a telephone interview.
“They were crying, tearing and shaking,” Splain said, adding that one woman came in cradling a baby.
“Some people got into a fight,” said Splain, who spoke with some of the customers. “One of the guys here thought it was over a toy, but it got louder and louder and then there were gunshots.”
Sarah Pacia of Cathedral City told The Desert Sun newspaper she was in the store with her two boys, ages 4 and 6, looking at coloring books when she heard a commotion in the next aisle. She thought it was people rushing to get a sale item. Then she heard three or four shots.
She said she froze, and store employees calmly escorted her out of the store.
“This is Toys “R” Us. There are kids shopping in there,” Pacia said. Her son Jayden, 4, was clinging to her leg. He told her he didn’t want to die, she said.
Toys “R” Us officials did not immediately return calls seeking comment.
Palm Desert is a resort town about 120 miles east of Los Angeles.

LOL yeah I know and a very young Robin Williams as well.
Wow forgot about this song, Funny lol
I hate the attachment limits on sizes of the files that you attach to an email. Trying to send a file that is .5 over the limit.. hmm you would think that they would just let it go but no they can't do that. So I have to figure out a way to split a 16.5 mb pdf file so that I can send it out in an email.
Anyone have any ideas on how to split a pdf file please let me know.

Try just chucking it into a file folder and zipping that folder.
That might help out a bit. :)
There's a good program out there called hjsplit. I'm sure you can find it via Google.
Thanks Cancer and bubbles. I was finally given a website that worked out really good.
What is said though Cancer is that I forgot about the split progam and I know that I have one on the computer.
*sighs* I will remember it next time though. Thanks again.
