You and I both DL. I for one am just glad to get this year over with.

This year has been rather bittersweet for me. On one hand, there is all the $#!% that's going on with the nation (terrorism and all), and on the other hand, there is the continuing joy that is my baby boy that arrived in April.

On the work front, the year started out really badly, but it is finally starting to look up again.

And of coarse, I haven't had any health problems like you have.

Your a proud Poppa

Well congrats.

When I was 11, I wondered what the year 2001 would hold for me, for the world. It was just after I saw the movie 2001 a S.O..

I would have never in a million years guessed that I would be unemployed, ill, and sitting at home reading & posting on the internet.

But that is just how life works. I accept that, and pray for better times to come.

Upon reflection, things are not as bad as they seem, or could be, and for that I am thankful. The economy is showing signs of improving, job losses are down, people are more carring than they have been in years, we have a great president(IMHO), and despite all the horrible things that have happened to so many this year around the world, life still goes on, and we have not blown our selves up.

I might be having a tough go of it, but I know that there are others out there having just as bad of time as me, or worse, and I sincerely hope and pray that good times come soon for many of us. I know that good times, or lack of worser times, is a good thing, and I eagarly await them.

Happy New Year ALL.

Well, 2001 has and gone. I agree it wasn't as bad as it could have been.

I guess 50 years ago people thought we'd be on Mars by now, or would have blown ourselves up. I guess we came in somewhere in the middle.

But still, where are the flying cars?

It is? Could have fooled me!!!

Anyway, they didn't have an internet back then, did they.

Oh, and the movie reference makes you, what, about 11 years older than me?
