Tomorrow night is New Year's Eve and, as usual, I haven't made any plans yet. But every year I seem to find a way to celebrate the New Year. I usually try to stay close to home as all the amateur drinkers are on the road.
On top of that, most restaurants and bars raise their prices and I'm not in the mood to have my pocket picked for a glass of bad champagne, a hat and some form of noise maker. But if you've never had the pleasure of being out on New Year's Eve, I guess you have to try it once or twice.
I thought about making some new year's resolutions but the thought just made me laugh in that I haven't made any resolutions in years. The resolutions I made in the early years were broken within the first week. So much for that.....
The News As I See It: The time to make your annual New Year's resolutions is nearing. Don't worry, next week you can begin paving hell with them, as usual.

The AREA 51 Retirement Home Bar And Grill: A woman goes into Wal-Mart to buy a rod and reel for her hubbie. She doesn't know which one to get, so walks over to the register.
A Wal-mart associate is standing there with sunglasses on. She says, "Excuse me sir, can you tell me anything about this rod and reel?"
The man says, "Ma'am, I'm blind, but if you'll drop it on the counter I can tell you about it." She didn't believe him, but dropped it on the counter anyway.
He said, "That's a 6' graphite rod with a Zebco 220 reel and a 10-lb test line. It's a good all-around rod and reel and it's $20."
She says, "It's amazing that you can tell all that just by the sound of it dropping on the counter. I think it's what I'm looking for, so I'll take it."
He walks behind the counter to the register. She bends down to get her purse and accidentally farts.
At first, she's embarrassed but then realizes that there's no way he would know it was her because being blind, he wouldn't know she was the only person there.
He rings up the sale and says, "That will be $25.50." She says, "But didn't you say it was $20?"
He says, "Yes ma'am, the rod and reel is $20, the duck call is $3, and the catfish stink bait is $2.50. Thank you for shopping Wal-Mart."

The Hits Just Keep On Coming: An old cowboy sat down at the Starbucks and ordered a cup of coffee. As he sat sipping his coffee, a young woman sat down next to him.She turned to the cowboy and asked, "Are you a real cowboy?"
He replied, 'Well, I've spent my whole life breaking colts, working cows, going to rodeos, cleaning my barn, working on tractors and feeding my dogs, so I guess I am a cowboy."
The woman said, "I'm a lesbian. I spend my whole day thinking about women. As soon as I get up in the morning, I think about women. When I shower, I think about women. When I watch TV, I think about women. I even think about women when I eat. It seems that everything makes me think of women." The two sat sipping in silence.
A little while later, a young man sat down on the other side of the old cowboy and asked, "Are you a real cowboy?" He replied, "I always thought I was, but I just found out that I'm a lesbian."
Hillary Clinton is out walking and she passes a young boy selling puppies. The boy asks, "Would you like to buy a puppy Ma'am?" Hillary says, "No, sorry, but we have a cat already."
The enterprising lad says, "But they are Democrat puppies, Ma'am." Clinton smiles, but again declines. The boy nods and Clinton walks on.
The next day, Hillary is walking by the same spot. There again is the boy still trying to sell the puppies. As Clinton walks by she overhears the youth telling the potential customer, "But sir, these are Republican puppies."
Clinton stops and says, "Young man, yesterday you told me those were Democrat puppies and today you are saying they are Republican puppies" The child replies, "Yes Ma'am."
Hillary then asks, "Well, if they were Democrat puppies yesterday, how could they be Republican puppies today?" The young man replied, "Well Ma'am, since then, they've opened their eyes."

Yep, the keepers let us out without guidance and our medications so Luly, Paul, Sandra and I went to Woody's and found our own medications. We spent the evening talking and laughing as the band played in the background.
It was great to see Sandra again as I had missed her previous trip about ten days ago and she couldn't attend the Wednesday night get together at the Hurricane Bar and Grill.
I was still semi-recovering from the Wednesday night partying at The Hurricane with Luly and Paul, which, after an hour, we abandoned and headed over to Woody's. Occasionally, on some of our Woody's rendezvous, the lights go out little by little until you realize you're the only one there. As long as we still have drinks, we keep on.....
But we came early on Saturday night and by a little after 11 pm, we went home as Sandra had another hour's drive to return home.
It was a fun night though and laughing and joking with friends always makes me happy. Of course, the morning after always leave me thinking, "I'm getting too old for this", but that's just my normal reaction after partying. As I slowly recover, the thought wanes and I start thinking about new adventures.
Luly has decided to refer to we four as scalawags (Noun; informal: a person who behaves badly but in an amusingly mischievous rather than harmful way; a rascal). I'd say that about sums it up although I would add a bit of gossip into the definition.
We have plans to drive up to Sandra's in January and spend the evening with her. I'm sure we'll have a great time. We usually do.....

The AREA 51 Retirement Home Bar And Grill: A very pretty young speech therapist was getting nowhere with her
Stammerers Action group. She had tried every technique in the book
without the slightest success.
Finally, thoroughly exasperated, she said "If any of you can tell me
the name of the town where you were born, without stuttering, I will
have wild and passionate sex with you until your muscles ache and
your eyes water right here on my desk. So, who wants to go first ?"
The Englishman piped up.
"B-B-B-Birmingham", he said. The speech therapist said, "There's no use, Trevor. Who's next ?"
The Scotsman raised his hand and blurted out "P-P-P-Paisley". The speech therapist replied, "That's no better.
There'll be no sex for you, Hamish.
How about you, Paddy?"
The Irishman took a deep breath and eventually blurted out
" London". The speech therapist said, "Brilliant, Paddy!, and immediately set
about living up to her promise.
After 15 minutes of exceptionally steamy sex, the couple paused for
breath and Paddy said
"......d-d-d-derry".
Two old friends were just about to tee off at the first hole of their local golf course when a guy carrying a golf bag called out to them, "Do you mind if I join you? My partner didn't turn up." They said, "Sure, you're welcome."
So they started playing and enjoyed the game and the company of the newcomer.
Part way around the course, one of the friends asked the newcomer, "What do you do for a living?" The newcomer replied, "I'm a hit man," The friend said, "You're joking!" The hitman said, "No, I'm not."
Reaching into his golf bag, and pulling out a beautiful Martini sniper's rifle with a large telescopic sight.
"Here are my tools." The other friend said, "That's a beautiful telescopic sight. Can I take a look? I think I might be able to see my house from here."
So he picked up the rifle and looked through the sight in the direction of his house.
"Yeah, I can see my house all right. This sight is fantastic. I can see right in the window. Wow, I can see my wife in the bedroom. Ha Ha, I can see she's naked!! Wait a minute, that's my neighbor in there with her..... He's naked, too !"
He turned to the hit man, "How much do you charge for a hit?"
"I'll do a flat rate, for you, one thousand dollars every time I pull the trigger." The friend asked, "Can you do two for me now?" The hitman said, "Sure, what do you want?"
The friend said, "First, shoot my wife, she's always been mouthy, so shoot her in the mouth. Then the neighbor, he's a friend of mine, so just shoot his dick off to teach him a lesson."
The hit man took the rifle and took aim, standing perfectly still for a few minutes. The friend asked impatiently,"Are you going to do it or not?" The hit man replied, "Just be patient, I think I can save you a grand here..."
The Hits Just Keep On Coming: An elderly pair (he a widower, she a widow) meet in a retirement village. They seem to hit it off; they share each other's values, enjoy the same jokes and find pleasure in each other's company.
After a few months, the widower asks for the hand of the widow in marriage.
She appears hesitant and decided to probe her soon-to-be a little saying, "Perhaps I shouldn't look a gift horse in the mouth, but how's your health?"
The old man answers, "It's okay. I'm not getting any younger, but I don't have any major health problems. I can still enjoy life."
The old woman says, "Well, I don't want to be a snoop, but I've got to protect myself. How are you fixed financially?"
The old man said, "So-so. I'm not rich, but I'm comfortable. You don't have to worry about me sponging off you. I can support myself".
The little old lady blushes and finally asks him,"And how's your sex life...." The old man replies, "Infrequently." The widow ponders this for a moment or so, then asks, "And is that one word or two?"
Jane had lost her husband almost four years ago. Her daughter was
constantly calling her and urging her to get back into the world.
Finally, Jane said she'd go out, but didn't know anyone.
Her daughter immediately replied, "Mom! I have someone for you to meet..
Well, it was an immediate hit. They took to one another and after
dating for six weeks, he asked her to join him for a weekend away. Their first night there, she undressed as he did. There she
stood nude, except for a pair of black lacy panties. He was in
his birthday suit.
Looking her over, he asked, "Why the black panties?"
She replied, "My breasts you can fondle, my body is yours to explore,
but down there I am still in mourning."
He knew he was not getting lucky that night.
The following night was the same. She stood there wearing the black
panties and he was in his birthday suit - but now he was wearing
a black condom. She looked at him and asked, "What's with the black condom?"
He replied, "I want to offer my deepest condolences."
That's it for today, my little gardenias. Remember, you know you've drank too much when you sit down on the toilet and try to put your seat belt on.

The Hits Just Keep On Coming: A Sunday School teacher of preschoolers was concerned that his students might be a little confused about Jesus Christ because of the Christmas season emphasis on His birth.

Little Johnny, waving his hand furiously, blurted out, "I know! I know! He's in our bathroom!" The whole class got very quiet, looked at the teacher, and waited for a response.
The teacher was completely at a loss for a few very long seconds.
He finally gathered his wits and asked Little Johnny how he knew this. Little Johnny said, "Well, every morning, my father gets up, bangs on the bathroom door, and yells 'Jesus Christ, are you still in there?'!"
Prince Charles finds an ancient wine bottle in the cellar of Windsor Castle. When he opens it, a genie flies out and grants him a wish. Charles is ecstatic as just that morning he had reversed his Range Rover over the Queen's favorite corgi and squashed it flat.

Charles then asks the genie if he could make his girlfriend Camilla Parker-Bowles beautiful as the media were always making fun of her looks. The genie thinks for a moment scratches his head and says, "On second thought, get that dog out of the garbage again!"
That's it for today, my little revelers. Remember, you know you're getting old when you fall down and wonder what else you can do while you're down there. I'm heading over to AREA 51 Saturday night for a little partying.

It's that time of year to reach out to all of my family, friends and readers and to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays. Numerous parties are on the horizon, beginning tonight, and continuing through Christmas day.

Holiday Greetings to my Democrat Friends: Please accept with no obligation, implied or implicit, my best wishes for an environmentally conscious, socially responsible, low-stress, non-addictive, gender-neutral celebration of the winter solstice holiday, practiced within the most enjoyable traditions of the religious persuasion of your choice, or secular practices of your choice, with respect for the religious/secular persuasion and/or traditions of others or their choice not to practice religious or secular traditions at all.

The AREA 51 Retirement Home Bar And Grill: Little Johnny had a cussing problem and his father was getting tired of it. He decided to ask his shrink what to do.
The shrink said, "Since Christmas is coming up, you should ask Johnny what he wants Santa to bring him. If he cusses while he tells you his wish list, leave a pile of dog poop in place of the gift or gifts he requests."
Two days before Christmas, Johnny's father asked him what he wanted for Christmas.
"I want a damn teddy-bear laying right beside me when I wake up. When I go downstairs I want to see a damn train going around the damn tree. And when I go outside I want to see a damn bike leaning against the damn garage."
Christmas morning, Little Johnny woke up and rolled over into a pile of dog poop. Confused, he walked down stairs and saw another pile under the tree. Scratching his head, he walked outside and saw a huge pile of dog poop by the garage.
When Johnny walked back inside with a curious look on his face, his dad smiled and asked, "What did Santa bring you this year?"
Johnny replied, "I think I got a dog, but I can't find the son-of-a-bitch!"
According to the Alaska Department of Fish and Game, while both male and female reindeer grow antlers in the summer each year, male reindeer drop their antlers at the beginning of winter, usually late November to mid-December. Female reindeer retain their antlers till after they give birth in the spring.
Therefore, according to every historical rendition depicting Santa's reindeer, ever single one of them, from Rudolph to Blitzen, had to be a girl.
We should have known.
Only women would be able to drag a fat man in a red velvet suit all around the world in one night and not get lost.
The Hits Just Keep On Coming: This is an imaginary situation, but I think it is fun to decide what one would do.
The situation: You are in Washington, DC, and there is a huge flood in progress. Many homes have been lost, water supplies compromised and structures destroyed.
Let's say that you're a photographer and getting still photos for a news service, traveling alone, looking for particularly poignant scenes. You come across Obama who has been swept away by the flood waters.
He is barely hanging on to a tree limb and is about to go under.
You can either put down your camera and save him or take a Pulitzer Prize winning photograph of him as he loses his grip on the limb.
Here's the question and think carefully: Which lens would you use?
After Quasimodo's death, the bishop of the Cathedral of Notre Dame sent word through the streets of Paris that a new bell ringer was needed.
The bishop decided that he would conduct the interviews personally and went up into the belfry to begin the screening process.
After observing several applicants demonstrate their skills, he had decided to call it a day.
Just then, an armless man approached him and announced that he was there to apply for the bell ringer's job.
The bishop was incredulous. "You have no arms!" The man said, "No matter, observe!" And he began striking the bells with his face, producing a beautiful melody on the carillon.
The bishop listened in astonishment, convinced he had finally found a replacement for Quasimodo.
But suddenly, rushing forward to strike the bell, the armless man tripped and plunged headlong out of the belfry window to his death in the street below.
The stunned bishop rushed to his side.
When he reached the street, a crowd had gathered round the fallen figure, drawn by the beautiful music they had heard only moments before.
As they silently parted to let the bishop through, one of them asked, "Bishop, who was this man?" The Bishop sadly replied, "I don't know his name, but his face rings a bell."
That's it for today, my little Christmas elves. Remember, money may not buy you happiness, but poverty won’t buy you shit. I'm heading over to AREA 51 for happy hour.
