May you be safe from the idiots who think gravity is just a theory and fire off guns, failing to understand that what goes up will come down.
Given the prevalence of accurate timekeeping devices, it is amazing that the explosions that are supposed to signal the new year extend for hours beginning four hours before and extending well after the actual event. Anyone who thinks alcohol and gunpowder is a recipe for a long life should be avoided by insurance agents.
The new year brings new opportunities, so here’s hoping that the good wins out and the world is made a little better. It hasn’t happened yet, but there’s always a chance.
Oh, and a happy 15th blogiversary™ to Steve Bates at the Yellow Doggerel Something.

Happy New Year all! 😀
Let’s face it… There is only one way to go from here…
Yeah… I’m the New Year Grinch! 😛
Things might get better, Kryten … OK, I admit that it is highly unlikely, but it is possible 😉
As an Engineer, I have to believe anything is possible. That is, except for things proven impossible… Well, until someone proves that what was impossible is now at least theoretically possible… Ummmm… Yeah! 😉 😀
Believe me Bryan, 2015 is a year I would love to forget.
Oh! And I was in a rush & forgot to congratulate Steve on 15 years blogging! He’s in a rare group indeed! Well done, and I wish you many more m8! 😀
Thanks, Bryan, and a belated happy 2016! I do still exist, though I may take a brief blog break… or not. Thanks for your steadfast dedication to posting regularly.
As Conan Doyle wrote: “Once you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth.” [depending on a given meaning of impossible]
When you are dealing with people who don’t accept reality, it’s time for the Twilight Zone theme.
You are very welcome, Steve.
Hopefully Florida man will continue to keep the country entertained this year, as he did last year.
Badtux, just look at our current and former elected officials – how can you doubt the state’s ability to continue to provide bizarre stories. BTW, they still haven’t outlawed bestiality with farm animals.
