Well, I’ve successfully survived another decade (yes, I know not technically true but whatever).
I hope these new 20s are good to us and we get rid of Trump ASAP.
Love you, Lizard fam. Get home safe tonight.
Hopeful 2020 from my little barrier island home. Nice fireworks on the beach, beautiful stars out, and I’m going to finish off the last of the 2019 junk food over the next day or two and then get to work on building a better life. “Twenty twenty” just sounds like a year of serious business… I intend to get my shit together… Let’s all have a better one.
Woke up in time for the CST ball. The bottle of fizzy in the beer fridge turned out to be the kids’ apple drink. Fell back on box Chardonnay. Year is going to be a bitch, isn’t it?

Not sure, but the apple juice might’ve been better ;)

One year from now we will be celebrating our self-redemption, or planning life in alt-America.
Working tonight on the overnight shift.
So here’s an imaginary rye Manhattan in toast to the new year. Let’s grab the sucker by the throat and make it what we need it to be.

Are they partying at your hostel? Our town dropped a peanut.
So: ready to sack out, bolstered by some New Years’ cheer ( pronounced “glen mo- RANJY”) - but before I do, I’d just like to wish the whole LGF universe ( Lizards, lurkers and lookie-loos) the best wishes for 2020 I can muster.
Happy New Year, y’all! 😺
Same ol ’ shit, just a different year. I’ll be the last LGFer stuck in 2019 (for an hour).
To all those who have, or are about to jump into 2020, have a Happy and Prosperous New Year.
To Charles (and my anonymous Secret Santa) thanks for allowing me to participate on this great forum.
And, I’ll turn off the 2019 lights. I should be awake as the fireworks/firearms explosions are just beginning. It’s raining cats and dogs outside and those idiots are still banging away. Don’t know they’re keeping their powder dry.

Not even half full thanks to the recent foul weather. A couple of folks are drinking in the lobby but nothing like last year. It’s going to be a bad year for this industry I think.

Ah, there you go, but none of them even recognized when i was whistling the Gary Owen earlier.
Happy new year, out here on the let coast. Sure as midnight arrived, firecrackers go off.
But so did a siren from what sounds like a fire-engine.
Never a dull moment on New Year’s ever.
2020 - we’re well into the 21st century. So far it hasn’t turned out as promised.

The organ of the Sint-Bavokerk (the Christiaan Müller organ) is one of the world’s most historically important organs. It was built by the Amsterdam organ builder Christian Müller, with stucco decorations by the Amsterdam artist Jan van Logteren, between 1735 and 1738. Upon completion it was the largest organ in the world with 60 voices and 32-foot pedal-towers.
In Moby-Dick (1851), Herman Melville describes the inside of a whale’s mouth:
“Seeing all these colonnades of bone so methodically ranged about, would you not think you were inside of the great Haarlem organ, and gazing upon its thousand pipes?”
Many famous musicians played this organ, including Mendelssohn, Händel and the 10-year-old Mozart, who played it in 1766. The organ was modified a number of times in the 19th and 20th centuries and most drastically altered in the renovation by Marcussen between 1959 and 1961. Further voicing work was undertaken between 1987 and 2000. Today concerts are regularly held in the church, and all through the year special opening times are organized so the public can walk in free of charge to listen to this famous organ in action.
I’m in and right back out again.
Happy New Year from a hotel room in Chicago.

So 2020 is looking to be a banner year for batshit crazy!
Rudy Giuliani, who serves as President Trump’s personal attorney, said Tuesday night that he would be willing to testify in a Senate impeachment trial for the president.
“I would testify,” Giuliani told reporters as he arrived at a New Year’s Eve party at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida.
He added that he could “do demonstrations” and that he’d “love to try the case.”
Giuliani is not expected to be a part of Trump’s defense team.
LOL it would be a train wreck. I would think that McConnell and Graham would be shitting themselves if this senile old fool went up on the stand and started blabbering.

So I get up this New Year morning at 6:20AM to my alarm that I forgot to silence last night, no big deal since I prob wouldn’t have slept much longer anyway. I had no alcohol yesterday at all so was not even going to get the extra sleep that might have given me. Come downstairs with cat hot on my heels. Clean out coffee filter basket, cat is whining to go outside, rinse and refill coffee pot with water and pour into coffee maker and turn on. Cat and I go outside, me for a smoke and her to just patrol her area for a few (not bad outside, about 27F with no wind).
We come back inside and I go into the kitchen to get a cuppa, and the water is still clear. I forgot to put the actual coffee into the basket. Welcome 2020.
Good morning 2020!
Happy New Year to my Lizard friends!

This reminds me of an incident that happened a few years ago. I was at a bookstore that had a cafe (Borders at King of Prussia Mall) and there was a family that was waiting at a table for a person to arrive. When this person (a “coach” that helped people get scholarships to colleges) he walked over to the table and sat down. He read over the entrance application and a composition. He made a few suggestions and the mother preceded to take him down verbally. She want him to guarantee that her son would get into the college he was applying to. The manager of the bookstore had to call the police because the woman was causing a ruckus.

re: #32 Eventual Carrion
Lol up at 5:45 now hovering over my French Press out at Mom in laws place. One of the cats is shadowing me
Who told her I take half and half in my coffee. She wants some. Damn big booms last night. Going out soon in early light to check on things.
Rose parade later…
I was chatting online earlier with a friend of mine who lives in Canberra. The air is, to put it mildly, completely unreasonable and unlivable. There’s smoke IN the buildings.
Air quality starts getting bad at 151 and hazardous at 200. According to this article, the air quality in the Canberra area is between 3,000 and 4,000. By comparison, this is a bad air quality day in Phoenix, with the west side of town recording 358.
And in the ongoing saga of the two missing children, the Rexburg (ID) police chief has pretty much had enough:
“It is astonishing that rather than work with law enforcement to help us locate her own children, Lori Vallow has chosen instead to leave the state with her new husband,” police said in a statement.
“We publicly call on Lori Vallow/Daybell and Chad Daybell to do the right thing and come forward with the information they have about the location and welfare of Joshua and Tylee. This entire investigation could have been avoided if Lori and Chad had simply been honest with law enforcement.”
Interesting that the couple have left Idaho, but where are the kids?
I’ve been lurking in some strange places on the intertubes to try and get a better idea of what’s going on, but it appears that even Chad’s old buddies in the Mormon dreams and visions community are as clueless as the cops. I’m just hoping the cops have talked to those people.
I went to bed at 11:00 last night. Got woken up an hour later by the usual booms but they were few and didn’t last long so I went back to sleep.

Am I marking myself hopelessly as an Old by wondering when it was that “celebratory gunfire” to mark New Years’ became a thing in America?
Firing off guns as “celebration” isn’t new, of course, but I have always associated it with backward “Third World” cultures.

I was disappointed to find that there is apparently no Lang, Arizona, New Mexico, etc. Best candidate is Lang, New South Wales
Lang, New South Wales, is a remote civil parish of Poole County in far northwest New South Wales. located at 29°30′25″S 141°31′10″E.
The geography of the parish is mostly the flat, arid landscape of the Channel Country. The parish has a Köppen climate classification of BWh (Hot desert).[3] The County is barely inhabited with a population density of less than 1 person per 150 km² and the landscape is a flat arid scrubland..

Apes, monkeys among 30 animals killed in German zoo fire
BERLIN - A fire raced through a zoo in western Germany in the first few minutes of the new year, killing more than 30 animals, including apes, monkeys, bats and birds, authorities said. Police said paper sky lanterns launched nearby to celebrate the arrival of 2020 were probably to blame.
Several witnesses saw cylindrical paper lanterns with little fires inside flying in the night sky shortly after midnight Wednesday near the Krefeld Zoo, Gerd Hoppmann, the city’s head of criminal police, told reporters.
“People reported seeing those sky lanterns flying at low altitude near the zoo and then it started burning,” Hoppmann said.
He said investigators also found used lanterns on the ground that hadn’t burned entirely. They were 34 centimeters (over 13 inches) long, made out of white paper with an opening at the bottom where a small fire would be suspended. The fire heats the air inside, making them fly and shine at night.

It never gets turned around on us boomers: Ok boomer.
I recall clearly being shit on by The Greatest Generation for being lazy and self-involved and ‘will never amount to anything’.
The wheel turns, and Millennials will soon be shitting on a subsequent generation.
Not only these two geniuses, but the excellent signers from Was (Not Was) on background vocals. If you can find the episodes of Night Music online, you get a musical education with each episode. https://t.co/xwoyU5JjtP

My favorite is the common sense conservative. Because nothing says common sense like fretting about Sharia Law and then advocating that we put the Bible in public schools.
Yeah, but that’s a different team.

“The children now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise. Children are now tyrants, not the servants of their households. They no longer rise when elders enter the room. They contradict their parents, chatter before company, gobble up dainties at the table, cross their legs, and tyrannize their teachers.”― Socrates
This has been going on for quite some time.

I’m so biased. I always root for the Boxers. 😂

Yes it has. A very long time.

Happy fucking new year.
Paper candle lanterns are bad news. In the Southwest US a few years ago, during a harvest festival, a swarm of those was lit, and floated into a radio tower, which went up. I believe the tower structure and everything on it was a total loss.

When I was younger and in school, I was told that my generation should suffer an economic depression in order to learn responsibility.
The fact that I was directing my own education to the best extent possible, was lost on them.

They want religious wars! I live in a heavily Mormon neighborhood with minority Catholic and Evangelical communities. So if the Bible were to be read in school, which version, and whose interpretation of same? Because I can tell you that these three groups do not agree on a lot of things.

I guess the point of not sharing your New Years Resolution is that nobody else knows when you break it sometime during the first week of the year.
Unless it’s yoga or a gym membership
Then we all know
