New Year's Wishes ...

-


·         Before I get completely wasted, make a fool of myself, stumble my way home and pass out, let me wish you a very happy New Year.
·  My New Year’s resolution is to be a little less perfect so I can stop making everyone else look so bad.
·  This coming year may you have happiness, good health, prosperity and finally realize how awesome I really am!
·  May you grow old enough that you struggle to stay up until midnight, prefer to stay home on New Year’s Eve and are unable to remember what a New Year celebration was like when you were young.
·  To all of my Facebook friends, may your Facebook page be full of New Year wishes from people you barely know.
·  May your New Year’s resolution be high definition. And may you be too drunk to understand that joke!
·  New Year’s resolutions are a to-do list for the first week of January.
·  May the New Year hurry up and come so we can finally get past this holiday season and get on with our lives!
·  Happy New Year! Here’s hoping that we can stay up later than 9 o’clock.

·  My New Year’s resolution is to stop pretending that you don’t annoy me so much.

Lights Out in June 2024 ...

  So, this happened. I did something good for all the bad reasons. No, maybe I did something bad for all the right reasons. Yeah, that’s the ticket. A couple of Mondays ago … I cleaned out the freezers. Threw away anything which was frost bitten … which was just about everything. But, I got snake bit ridding us of the frost bitten … I put out FIVE trash cans for the Tuesday ‘solid waste’ pickup. I always put the maximum amount out for the trash day … I feel like I get ‘gypped’ if I don’t … like I don’t get my money’s worth unless I’ve rounded up a lot of trash… kitty commode scoops always top off the garbage take out … So, Monday night … huge storm. Rain, hail, lightning that was so lightening that the darkness-activated landscape lights were blinking … no idea if night had turned into day. The wind was hellish … And … all sprinkler systems came on despite their moisture detection gauges which are supposed to block all high cost waterings … And five trash cans (bins…to use a...

South Africa, Antarctica, South America

Travel Log for Antarctica Trip—2003-04 December 21, 2003 Hello From Africa I arrived in Cape Town after about 20 hours in a charter flight from New York—it was supposedly the charter plane that the Buffalo Bills football team uses. We had major problems refueling in Ghana—seems the airport official wanted a cash bonus payment—took over 4 hours to settle—we couldn’t leave the plane. Toured Cape Town yesterday. Took a cable car to the highest point, Table Mountain, for a beautiful view of the city and seaside. Shopped at the Waterfront area of Cape Town and, yes, I will be throwing away clothes that I brought with me in order to bring back all the souvenirs. More later. We are now sailing for Tristan da Cunha, which is the most remote island in the world. The inhabitants are all descendents from shipwreck survivors. December 24, 2003 Will Santa Find Me? Today is Christmas Eve and we were scheduled to get off this ship--we've been sailing since Saturday and today is Wednesday--bu...

Vancouver In Bloom—A Sight Worth the Wet Season

  Vancouver In Bloom—A Sight Worth the Wet Season If this city had a face, I’d make out with it.   Seriously. It is that beautiful, clean, historic, futuristic, and friendly. Vancouver is a recently-discovered wonderland of travel destination.   Before the 1986 World’s Fair Expo and the 2010 Winter Olympics, it had been a cruise ship souviner shop stop. Now, the number one business for Vancouver?   Tourism.   Number two?   Entertainment/movies/television filming (behind only Los Angeles and New York). The city is funky yet lady-like.   Great art museums with everything from historically rich British Art to the “First Nation” residents…I love that term….better than “Natives” or “____”…The First Nation residents.   I anticipated hokey totem poles and there are some, but very few.   Lush gardens like the Queen Elizabeth indoor garden, the Vancouver Island (a hour and a half ferry ride—it does have great food and shopping but d...
