THIS WEEK: We wrap up the year/century/millennium/whatever up by handing out some leftover Note To.... thingies. This is known as Beating a Dead Horse Into The Ground. And, of course, the usual batch of brain drainage.

We obviously didn't get *everything* we wanted for Christmas, because there are still some folks walking around who can put a finger to their wrists and feel a pulse...

In everyone's life, there is a stoplight that stays green for about 3 seconds.

Oh, yes, heavy drinking/drug use just makes you so sexy, witty and urbane. Especially the part when you barf on our shoes.
