How Is This Possible

My snow shovel broke two snow storms ago. The next day I went to Target to buy a new one. They were completely out. I got busy and it was no longer top of mind. Earlier this week we had snow and sleet. I needed a shovel. Yesterday I went to the hardware store but they too were out. They told me that other stores had been calling them because everyone has run out of snow shovels. How is this possible? I had my shovel for at least 5 years. I would figure that most other people would also already have a shovel. IS it a conspiracy? Did all the shovel break this year? Is there some huge advancement in shovel technology that I hadn't heard about and everyone is just upgrading this year? Well at least this morning a Bosnian guy rang my bell offering to shovel our walk. But I still need a shovel.

The Falcon is finally gone. It was picked up yesterday. Then I went to Mac HQ and ordered a 24" imac.
