If only increasing the year by one actually made a difference or gave you a REAL clean slate! lol

 

[wingchun100]

Sorry to bring the mood down.

Happy New Year, everyone!

3 1/2 hours til midnight.

Happy new year everyone. I hope 2017 is a good one for all.

almost 5 hours into the new year, and it already bites!
Off to work I go!

 

[Gerry Seymour]

About an hour away from New Year's, and sadly I don't give a damn about it.

My wife and I did the OAP thing - just went to bed at our regular time.

I am guessing here: does OAP stand for "old a$$ person?"

Pretty much. I'm sometimes nicer and say it means "old-aged person".

 

[Xue Sheng]

This is the first time in 12 years I didn't do the OAP things...but I was almost out before 12:00 but I was out by 12:30

 

[ks - learning to fly]

well, my family has left from our Christmas celebration
and - as per usual - it was great to see them, but now
I am a little sad because they're not here

Sue and I went to the movies. We were home by 9:30 or so. Sat in the hot tub for a while with a bottle of port.

I was thinking "old angry person".

Get off my lawn!!!

Bullies are funny, especially internet bullies.

Have you ever had this experience?

You block some troll, whether it is on YouTube, Facebook, here, or any other site. Then they create ANOTHER account so they can find you and say, "Haha, what a pu$$y you are...blocking me."

Um...if that makes me a pu$$y then so be it. Block and ignore features were created for a reason. It would be an insult to the admins if we didn't put them to good use! :-D

 

[Xue Sheng]

I tend to believe that internet bullies are very different people face to face. The anonymity of the web breads much bravery that simply does not exist inperson

There are a lot of fun exchanges with online bullies and 'victims' who fight back, and tell their spouses/mothers/employers what they are about....

 

[Steve]

Oh man. First day back at work after two weeks off, Waking up was not fun.

 

[Xue Sheng]

Taking a sick day today, apparently the first day back, yesterday, was to much for my old and frail system

Yes indeed. There is a local "musician" around here (I put that in quotes because he hasn't played out or written a new song in years) from Greenwich who talks really tough on his Wordpress blog. A few years back, he targeted the owner of a local bar. Then this "musician" and I were on a bill together. The bar owner showed up and sat right down next to him, giving him a big cheerful "HI!!!!" Well, Mr. Tough Blogger looked like he wanted to disappear inside his chair somehow.

It was rather humorous to watch.

Took advantage of being out of work today. Drove up the foggy mountain and was guided by the light.

Went home a few hours later and watched that puppy drop into the sea.
