Cyber Monday

Ok, I'm a few days late (cut me a break, it's been how long since i've posted?). Did you know that this last Monday was "Cyber Monday"? According to all-knowing wikipedia

the term was coined based on research showing that 77% of online retailers reported a significant increase in sales on the Monday after Thanksgiving in 2004. In late November 2005, the New York Times reported that "The name Cyber Monday grew out of the observation that millions of otherwise productive working Americans, fresh off a Thanksgiving weekend of window shopping, were returning to high-speed Internet connections at work Monday and buying what they liked."

Millions of otherwise productive working Americans busy on their work day shopping online? Someone want to know why the economy is in trouble?
