We carried in our favorite pizza and will be lights out early so we can get to Our New Year's tradition. Which is to drive 80 miles on Jan 1 and go to a discount book store that has every book half price.
This is already a bargain store and people, including us, walk out with armloads of books. You can get 6 mos worth of reading for a song, which is fine because they do it again on July 4th. And they have great selection,comic books, war stories, coffee table books, gardening, geography, cookbooks, every catagory, tons of books.
A great day to look forward to.
I prefer library books mostly, but I still wind up buying books to read and then share and many for gifts.

New Year's Eve is amature night. We stay home, don't let our 18 year old out on the roads, eat junk food, play games & watch TV. . .

before our 9 year old could tell time, we would celebrate the New Year with New York (which was 9PM our time) and hit the sack by 9:30. Now that he knows the difference between 9PM and midnight we are stuck. :)

We are home with a frig full f Miller lite, wings and other munchies. I plan to mix up some gucamola later and then ring in the New Year watching the ball drop. Safest place in the world here with no stupiddrunks to deal with, no drunk drives to dodge and good company. :)

Go to bed early. Get up at 11:50 PM, sight in the AR, and at the stroke of midnight, put 3 rounds in a 1 inch group on a strategically placed piece of wood in the back yard. I have a earthen backstop so it’s safe.

Night before last I dreamed that I won $100,000.00. Last night I dreamed that I was elected President (kind of by default.....don't ask okay, it was a dream). I think I will drink a glass or two of wine and retire to see what tonights adventure will be.

It's WAY to cold to be outside so I will be content at home! Happy New Year fellow Freepers!

Believe it or not, the sig other and I are going to go on a stake out. Some lousy ba$tard(s) stole a new Caterpiller skid loader from the university property that I manage on Oct 30. Fortunately, the Topeka cops found it abandoned in a car wash bay the next day. Don’t know why the thieves didn’t keep it??

Well, I got on the stick and installed a 4 camera system before X-Mas but our intrusion alarm was not installed until yesterday.

Well, guess what. We had fresh snow and I found fresh foot tracks in the snow yesterday from the previous night’s snow storm. After reviewing the tapes, I found the perps walking around the property at 2am in the morning (they, 2 of them, walked 1/2 mile into the headquarters). Of course, we had the campus cops out to conduct their perfunctory investigation. These ba$tards also cut 4 fences while enroute to our headquarters.

Well, we think they were merely casing our joint and are planning on visiting the property tonight while they think everyone is out partying. Heh, heh.... We will be waiting. I told the cops I was going to hire 4 goons to break their legs if we caught them.. They both thought that was an amusing comment.

Sorry for the long post. It is hard to tell FR what we are going to do without a little background info.

Be safe,

MFO

Well I won't be able to make it till midnight after all. Will head to bed here shortly.

I pray that 2010 will be the start of good conservative Christians being elected to every part (local, state, and national) of our government.

Happy and safe New Year to y'all!
