Welcome To 2008!

I wonder if Philadelphia has had its first homicide of the year yet?
NEW YORK (AP) -- More than a million revelers in Times Square cheered as the giant crystal ball made its 100th drop and a ton of confetti rained down on the urban canyon, ushering in the new year.

Organizers said well over a million people attended the festivities. They were treated to an entertainment lineup that included Dick Clark and Ryan Seacrest handling the countdown to 2008 and musical performances by Carrie Underwood, Miley Cyrus and others.

New Year's Eve revelers converged on Times Square to watch the dropping of a new energy-efficient ball, while gay couples in New Hampshire awaited the stroke of midnight to take advantage of a new law allowing civil unions. (H/T - CNN)
Me and the missus? We stayed up until midnight watching South park reruns. When the clock struck twelve, we kissed, went outside to hear the crickets - our neighborhood is really quiet - and she went to bed. Yeah, we're party animals.
