New Years plans?

Does everyone plan their New Year's Eve six months in advance? It seems like everyone I talk to has had their evening mapped out for ages. I'm never on the ball with this sort of thing. We're considering having people over but so many people are already committed other parties I'm not sure we can be much of a draw. I promise, there will be snacks (sweet and savory).

Gerald Ford was a badass

Who else leaves messages for release after their own death? Of course, his point that the Bush administration lied about the Iraq war would have been more effective if he had the stones to speak it while alive. But something is better than nothing, and I can always imagine the beginning of his note to say, "By the time you read this, I am totally dead."

I have been playing a lot of go at dragongoserver lately, in addition to playing with the Columbus Go Club on Sundays at the North Market and on Wednesdays at Barnes and Noble in the Lennox Town Center. I lose nearly every good game but I'm learning.

So, we meet again...
