New Year's Rockin' Bloggin' Eve

What are your plans?

Me, I've got nothing tangible. I'm sick as hell -- I've had this cold for over a week now, since last Sunday, and it has definitely overstayed its welcome -- and am probably just going out to a random bar with old friends in the vain hope that drinking on New Year's Eve will somehow be more fun and interesting than drinking on any other night of the year.

Bumped. Guess this can serve as a New Years thread for those of us lame enough wise enough to stay in tonight.

Tack-on from lauraw: literal translation (mostly) of Auld Lang Syne, from Wiki.

Should old acquaintance be forgot,
and never brought to mind ?
Should old acquaintance be forgot,
and auld lang syne ?

CHORUS:
For auld lang syne, my dear,
for auld lang syne,
we'll take a cup o’ kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.

And surely you’ll buy your pint cup !
And surely I’ll buy mine !
And we'll take a cup o’ kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.

CHORUS

We two have run about the slopes,
and picked the daisies fine ;
But we’ve wandered many a weary foot,
since auld lang syne.

CHORUS

We two have paddled in the stream,
from morning sun till dine;
But seas between us broad have roared
since auld lang syne.

CHORUS

And there’s a hand my trusty friend !
And give us a hand o’ thine !
And we’ll take a right good-will draught,
for auld lang syne.

Cheesecake? [Ace] For a good cause, why not. Gina Else of Pin Ups For Vets sends some of her video blogs. Here's one.

The email asks for suggestions for future videos.

Alas, I can't think of any ideas. Not. A single. Idea.
