Have a great new year Khan! We'll be partying hard and I expect to get to as much as 11pm. maybe. Netflix has a 3 minute countdown celebration for the kids that can be played at any time - may avail ourselves of that option.
CONGRATULATIONS!!! And Happy New Year to you, too.
Also, from your posts, Khan, I don't think you are a geezer! But it's OK to feel like one sometimes. I think we all do. I would have gone to bed early too, except the fireworks out on the street were so loud that they kept me up until 1 AM.
Happy New Year! Fully enjoying my now 6 1/2 years of retirement. Our local tavern had a 4:00 PM ball drop (complete with hats and noise makers) for us geezers.
