Reconciled, wished on, prayed for and feared
And shall we predict what this near year will hold?
Only if we’re foolish, shameless and bold-
I propose that the pessimists will again be proved wrong
Yet remain unpersuaded by reason or song
While the optimists see that the future is bright
‘Til we need them for food by New Year’s Eve night.
Note to readers: Right now, I'm thinking the title of this blog gets a new meaning and will contain intermittent posts like the Wednesdays and Saturdays from Waking Ambrose, though not necessarily on Wednesday, Saturday or any other regular schedule. To keep up, you may want to use Google Reader or with the RSS feed. I think there is one.

Yes, I will buy your prediction that the pessimists will again be proved wrong. We have a bunch of them don't we?
I have a special drop folder in my e-mail for the ones I still correspond with. The rest all go to junk mail which is 'trash.' XD

I just logged-in to recommend Bear's comment twice.
So why did I have to find this out from Cooper's blog?
Yeah 2011--Doug's back!
Hey I'm not New Years food!!!!
Cooper, it might be pathetic around here, at least until I figure out what I'm doing. But thanks.
Skál, Bear!
Karen, that would be a nice feature. Thanks.
Pia, New Year's food is a bloody mary, right?
Glad you rededicated yourself to entertaining us.
Oh, yeah! Of course! You guys.
