Happy New Year from New York!

Good to see your still there! We had a some bad reception for a moment, everything went to static. Bit of scare for second there.

Build a man a fire and he's warm for a day. Set a man on fire and he's warm for the rest of his life.

Happy New Year from Kenner, LA!

My god! We went all out this year! Hundreds upon hundreds of fireworks, in every direction you could look! I was bloody brilliant. And the casino even had a more amazing display.

The last 35 minutes were pure firework displays in every direction of the compass. It was beautiful. They go all out here in Kenner (last year was almost as good), but this year was the best I've seen.

*Yes indeed.  And Rael has promised I'd be cloned during the event.  wink

*You can have it; I'm allergic to crowds. 

Nice and quiet in my neck of the woods last evening; just a few distant firecrackers until 11-ish.

And why do I get the feeling I'm going to be writing "2002" for a few days by accident?!  Time goes by so fast...

Is your clone going to be as tastey as you purport to be? Ask Rael to clone me one of you if that's the case... wink
