READY!?
Set?
go!

The biggest sham of holiday about to commence.. New Years Eve.. the day when everyone puts on their fake smile. Lights up their sad streamers.. puts on their finest sparkly black dress.. nicest tie and shirt. Lobster tale, prime rib, and lots of liquor later, a new year has been born..

It's that time of year when the sad get sadder and the happy get let down.. Ever notice the crowd in the bar or restaurant around 12:30am New Years day? They look like a huge letdown just occurred.. like they the celebration didn't live up to the hype.. And they're NOT wrong!

It doesn't.. ever.

Enjoy the lobster.. ask for butter.. make sure the beer is cold. And hope to be drunk by midnight.. when New Years Day arrives, you'll be too hungover to remember who you kissed or even what new years resolutions you made. Better off that way anyway.. Let Dick Clark and Ryan Seacrest usher in the new year with the Jonas Brothers or whatever other pop culture icons will be on TV .. And if you're really not in the spirit, don't forget the Sci-Fi Channel offers up the Twilight Zone marathon every New Years. Sometimes I'd rather be in the twilight zone than offer up tough lobster and undercooked prime rib to people too intoxicated to realize that it's 2009...
