Do you have any great plans for new year's eve or are you going tho stay home and watch Dick Clark (what is he, 127 years old) and that old ball fall in Time Square. Raven and I will be playing a new years eve gig in Marion Indiana so if you are with in say about 500 miles stop on in and I'll buy you a beer or six. Happy and Merry and best to you and yours in the New Year!!! The Peckery
We are going to spend the evening at a friend's house where there will be many other friends of ours who we have known for 20 years or more. We usually have a potluck dinner, play games and bring in the New Year with a little bubbly. We don't drink that night as we have a long drive home where doggies will be anxiously awaiting our arrival to share the bed with.
I just did a Mapquest search, and while I do live within 500 miles of Marion, Indiana, I have no money to get there (no gas, food or lodging money). I'll just buy a six pack of Corona or Foster's & do my drinkin' at home.

May the Irish hills caress you. May her lakes and rivers bless you. May the luck of the Irish enfold you. May the blessings of Saint Patrick behold you.
My friends, William Lother and honorary Irishman, Mauro Mamawal, will more than likely do what we did today. Play computer games and find new message boards to play on. What else is there to do in southern California?
...sigh...isn't it enough that I'm going back on Atkins?
Whatever you plan on doing and whereever you are, may your times be safe and fun...if both can happen at once!
My husband, two kids and I usually spend New Years Eve at my parents house. We have some good food (usually we grill steaks), shoot pool in their family room too, then at night we shoot fireworks out in the street in their neighborhood. We accumulate fireworks during the year on trips to Florida or Alabama, then shoot them off New Years Eve (and save a few for the Fourth of July celebration too)...

"All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king..."
