Happy New Year to the West Coast!

I'll delete if one goes up on the front page. But I don't see one a'comin'!

Love to y'all from portland!

It's all good people.  Keep working for what you love and believe in

•  The left coast may be last

  to celebrate, but we're damned good at it!

  •  What about Alaska & Hawaii?

    Then again, this East Coast resident isn't saying up until 5:00 just to celebrate with Hawaii.

    •  Oh, my goodness, you are correct.

      I never realized I was such a continent-oriented snob.  My apologies to our island-dwelling brothers and sisters.  May your celebrations be memorable and your 2007 be happy and prosperous.

      And, Progressive Moderate, it's well past your bedtime young man/woman!  (Like I have any room to talk.)

  •  Yes, see my previous comment.

    Progressive Moderate pointed out that, surprisingly, the earth isn't flat!  It doesn't end just off the the Oregon coast.  Who knew?

    HNY to you michael1104!

•  Tequila

  No champaign for this boy tonight. The nectar of agave to salute the new year from Skamania County, WA--a 'conservative' county which voted Dem. by a good majority this year. If only we had run some candidates for some uncontested seats at the county level . . . Next year. :-)

  •  Ahhhh, exsimo2, many a happy night

    have I spent with the elixir of the worm.  I gave it up some years ago.  Not because it ever mistreated me.  We had a fine symbiotic relationship, tequila and I.  Life just mutated.

    Enjoy your shots (or mixes).  Have one for me, if it doesn't send you over the line.

  •  It's a Time Machine for Me

    One sip of tequila, warm fuzzy feeling.

    Two sips, people are saying very odd things to me and it's Wednesday.
