THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW THIS WEEK
>> MAN VS. DEER: Be vewwy, vewwy qwiet, it’s hunting season in Pennsylvania. Thousands of hunters will head off into the forests starting today to try and give new meaning to the term “The buck stops here.” So don ye now your orange apparel and remember to be careful out there.
>> CLICK TILL YOU DROP: If the malls took a toll on you on Black Friday, then have we got a shopping day for you. Today is Cyber Monday, when you can grab plenty of great e-deals by shopping online. And you can do it all without getting off your chair.
>> COOOOKKIIEEE!: I bet you thought Christmas Day was December’s shining moment. Well, think again, Fig Newton breath. Saturday is National Cookie Day – a day designed to celebrate our little tasty baked friend: the cookie. So down a few chocolate chips in honor of the big day, and don’t forget to clean up the crumbs.
>> MUSICAL MAGIC: Sugar plum fairies, toy soldiers and Santa Claus. Oh yeah, the Northeastern Pennsylvania Philharmonic holiday show has music, too. Friday at 7 p.m. at the Scranton Cultural Center, 420 N. Washington Ave., Scranton; Saturday at 2 and 7 p.m. at the F.M. Kirby Center, Public Square, Wilkes-Barre. Call 341-1568 for details.
>> SANTA: THE REAL STORY: In a world where toys were banned, ONE MAN dared stand up and fight for the children. CHEER his courageous escapes. WEEP as he melts the heart of the evil Winter Warlock. CRY as you realize this holiday special turns 40 this year. It’s “Santa Claus is Comin’ to Town” and it’s comin’ to ABC-Channel 16 Thursday night at 8.
