End of the year musings

First I want to say thank you to Norm and Laurie Coleman for their wonderful Holiday card. I know Laurie just turned 50 this year, and it's amazing that she still looks pretty good (sorry for the poor image quality of the card - I took the photo with my Treo). I'm disappointed that Norm is on the front line in the war against Christmas. His card merely says "May the Lord's blessing shine on you and yours this holiday season." What's the matter Norm, too good to celebrate Christmas? Don't let your good friends at Fox News hear about this, they're liable to raise hell over it.

I'm excited for 2007, not only because of the promises to come from a Democratic legislative branch, but more importantly that I shall once again live on the yellow line!

I'll try to do some lists for 2006, as I have in years' past. I guess I can start off with the most interesting book I read: Freakonomics by Stephen J. Dubner and Steven D. Levitt, perhaps the greatest Stephen/Steven combo since Colbert and Carell were on the Daily Show a few years ago.

Now I'm off to Blockbuster to return some movies that are well overdue.
