Happy New Year! Unfortunately, it's supposed to rain tonight, though not heavy. Wasn't going anywhere, however.

Thanks @Cornelius_Gotchberg , as I type it is breakfast time, and a late one at that, on New Year's Day, which I never saw in due to it being in the middle of a work round.

Enjoy your parties everyone when the time is right.

Happy New Year to one and all

Homebodies here. Enjoying a margarita for my celebration. I can already hear some fireworks and it’s twilight. ~90% of our neighbors are fireworks aficionados or it’s gunfire. The dog isn’t a fan.

Lots of firework sounds to ignore here, all evening. Balmy 37F/3C, the drift of snow is melted away. Just munching a few chips with garlicky artichoke dip. Happy new year to all of you!

@Cornelius_Gotchberg what in Hades is all the chicken scratch on December? You some kind of old school bookie or sports betting phenom or stock market day trader that tracks it all on their very retro calendar? I see some red numbers, red ink normally reserved for some type of loss. Whatever it is it seems financial.

My resolution on my phone isn’t enough to discern what’s going on, but since you put the photo it out there now I’m nosey…err…curious, lol.

They tore down the school The Gotch attended to make room for the Old School. Anywho, them there retro calendar entries? If necessary, they're...um...disposable. Electronic records? Not so much. FTR, red ink is month to month; were it day-to-day/week-to-week (December, leastways), it'd be a Sea of SCARLET

In order of least-to-most importance: Risk supervision (valid analysis, dispassionate reasoning, and critical thought), followed by abbreviated existential & philosophical musings.

One more thing; were The Gotch (heh!) a bettin' man, he'd take the over in the Rose Bowl...
