Hark, The First Weekend Of 2011 (Or The End Of 2010)


It'll be a link-only post since tonight there's dinner and drinking to be had to usher in the new year. 2010, what can we say? You were good at times and sucked at others, but now that you're going away, we'll look at you with reverence and nostalgia...when (and if) we feel like it.

Here's to all of you, your family and friends - have a safe and wonderful New Year's Eve, and best wishes for 2011.
