"Pretty Little Things", A Strange Dream about Steven Spielberg

Image
It is 3:58am in Lagos, Nigeria. I just woke up from a dream of seeing Steven Spielberg talking about a new film titled "Pretty Little Things". That was all I saw in my dream. Only Almighty God knows what this dream means. I have been a fan of Spielberg since I saw "ET", his 1982 phenomenal SciFi film decades ago. And that even inspired me to write a short science fiction titled "AC" for Alien Creature. I wonder why Spielberg did not make sequels of "ET". That awesome extra terrestrial creature ought to have returned by now and see the world has changed since his first visit. This time ET will be on CNN and connect back home with Virtual Reality (VR).

Black Friday? The Majority Of U.S. Holiday Shopping Happens In December ~ BY Niall McCarthy | Statista These days, shopping splurges and Thanksgiving feasts go hand in hand for the vast majority of Americans. According to the National Retail Federation, an estimated 137.4 million people are planning or considering shopping during this year’s Thanksgiving weekend. The splurge reaches its zenith on Black Friday, the busiest shopping day of the year, when Americans spend billions getting a head start on their holiday shopping. Interestingly, however, the majority of holiday shopping still happens in December. A Deloitte survey recently revealed that only nine percent of Americans plan to do the majority of their holiday shopping on Black Friday with 40 percent preferring to purchase the bulk of their gifts in December. Three percent of people prefer to take advantage of the post-Christmas sales and do the bulk of their shopping in the post-Christmas sales in January. Source:
