Happy New Year, Elliott.

Namaste

So beautiful! Happy new year all!

It sure is. I don’t get displays like that in my little berg.

Happy New Year, egregious.

Namaste

Wow, thanks Elliott.

What fun!

Reminds me of the Golden Gate and Bay Bridge 50th anniversary fireworks.

Great find, Elliott, thanks.

Ellie, Happy New Year…! *g*

Happy New year, Elliot and all

If it’s down under, is that video upside down?

I’ve never seen anything like this–thanks, Ellie.

Happy New Year everybody, and may it be a more prosperous and special year for us all.

Chicago does that, or they did when I lived there. On a big barge out in Lake Michigan.

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year, My Friends! May it be far better than this past year. Politically, financially (A modest wish), and spiritually (A major ask). Thank you very much for the last year, I have really enjoyed it!

Happy New Year to all. Bonne Année et Meilleurs Voeux à toutes et à tous!

I am saving my celebrating when I get back my Constitution…Happy New Year to whole world and all the creatures.

Elliot—
We’re missing you at my house. Nice dinner, Booman and Erica left a while ago, the rest of us are watching Roman Holiday and drinking bubbly.

In conversation about ringing out the old we couldn’t remember how Laura go the name “Pickles.” Anyone?

We are SO eager to see chimpy and pickles pack up and leave early in the New Year!

Happy New Year!
Hope it starts out better for you

Just watched the Philadelphia fireworks on the teeVee. Spectuacular!

and yes they had a barge floating around on the Delaware River

Happy New Year, Firepups!

*waving*

waving back!

We’ll find a way to get together on Friday.

Really — that is so fine. That is so fine. I spent Christmas in West Chester/Chadds Ford area and it was wonderful!

You should have gotten in touch. That’s where I live.

Nothing like repeating oneself again.

cool!

I should say freezing.

happy new year ellie

My brother lives on Meetinghouse Road.

Happy New Year, East Coasters!

Watching Andy Cooper and Kathy Griffin in Times Square — she is really pushing all his buttons tonite.

very much so tonight. Made lamb chops on the outside grill. Brrrrrrrr. Cold and windy new year.

Next time you are here, we must meet.

So, anyone know why “Pickles” Bush? Collectively we can’t remember.

Think I will head out. I really want this year over with too much to “savor” the last dregs. Take care and a happy new years to all.

It’s a dill story.

Happy News years, Rev Deb.

Helloooooo, Elliott!

A dilly, huh?

HNY back to you too.

Didn’t it have something to do with pickles and ice cream, or fried pickles?

And Pickles, that comes from the Dick Van Dyke Show. The side kick, Moery AMsterdam’s wife was always just
called Pickles. But I forget who first baptized Laura Bush with the name, bartcop?

I can’t remember. It came up in a thread a couple of years ago and made sense back then, but my mind lost it.

Never knew. Always wondered.

Maybe

Picky Mrs. Pickles

She couldn’t have been too picky if she married George!

Good point…! ;-)

let’s get this party started,
Late Late Night is up

Sounds good to me.

Perhaps her most notable contribution was the roses are red poem.

Shameless R them.

….but my mind lost it.

My mind has been losing it for some time now, I think. Still better than losing my mind, though.

Happy New Year all!

Hey all, happy new year!
