Same from me. May the new year also bring the safe and swift homecoming of all our brave kids in Iraq.

A Happy, Prosperous, Fulfilling Peaceful and Contented New Year to you all!
Long may your lum reek!

Translation from Scots: May your chimney smoke for a long time yet.

LOL, FF ~ thanks for the [obviously needed] translation ~

And speaking of needing translation, here's a funny story [well, I think it's funny] that I told last night ~ my former firm had a London office, and we hired what the Brits call a "solicitor" to manage that office ~ he also happened to be a British Lord ~ David was in our Chicago office for meetings and as he was leaving for the day he said [quite clearly] "well then Sooz I'll knock you up at 1000am tomorrow" ~ luckily, I stopped myself before blurting out the first thing that jumped into my mind ~ my former boss was almost convulsed in laughter, mostly because he KNEW what I was thinking, but he finally said "that means he'll CALL you at 1000am tomorrow" ~

LOL!
I once worked on a project dealing with kids excluded from school. One summer afternoon when met with the heads of various Social Work and Education departments to discuss the extraordinarily high exclusion rate of a local high school. As you may imagine the mood was fairly serious, someone was going to have to accept responsibility and offer a remedial plan.
The mood softened the instant my female colleague requested that someone open a window as she "tends to faint when in heat".

Cue 10 guys trying to stifle their laughs and failing miserably.

On the subject of New Year, We tried to punch a whole through the clouds in Edinburgh last night but without success, it's still damp and grey today.http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/7806767.stm
Oh well, back to the drawing board.
