The Official I DID not get Ultimate Topic

Well I went to Target and the guy was just putting up a sign saying it was “postponed.” I Chuckled and asked if they had any in the back? He said “Well if we did we could not sell them anyway.” And I told him I knew it had been canceled and he just looked at me.

Then it was off to best buy, the said “oh yeah we have it right over here.” But as it turned out no such luck. He asked if I wanted to leave my number I said “no it was canceled” and he asked “then why did you ask us to look for it?” I shrugged and said “I was hoping you did not get the memo.”


So no LUCK!

Sounds like my story. I did call Tower yesterday and they told me they had it in stock. I will be calling them 2day 2 see if they do have it. If so, I will be heading there after work.

I, too, went to Best Buy and Target and got the same response. I am wondering if they were actually pressed.

I didn't get it. Then again, I don't want it, and I haven't looked.

The same old songs yet again? Boring.
