I said goodbye to 2012 by partaking in First Night Boston where I watched a group of young Israeli jazz musicians before seeing jazz guitar legend John Scofield in concert.
With twenty minutes to spare, I returned home to watch the ball drop in Times Square. Ten years ago, I was in NYC. I couldn’t get to Times Square but I was at the corner of Fifth and 43rd. Close enough.
As for this year, it just isn’t the same without Dick Clark.
Well, as I wrote yesterday, my new year doesn’t begin until I see Groucho, Harpo, Chico and sometimes Zeppo. Another eleven hours.
The fiscal cliff has now come and gone. Deal or no deal, I believe it’s the last thing anyone wants to think about.
Well, hello 2013. It’s going to be long 365 days.

Counting the Costs of Clintonism
The debacle of this president’s administration is both a cause and a symptom of the decline of American values. Unless Congress impeaches him, that decline will go on unchecked. An eminent jurist surveys the damage and assesses the chances for the recovery of our culture.

I still think the liberals missed an opportunity when they failed to have Obama on nation-wide TV to usher in the Obamacare taxes and the Obama tax rate increases by releasing a giant ball with a dollar sign on it and have it dropped into the Potomac. We could have a competition to see which MSNBC personality could mc the event, although Candy Crowley of CNN seems most deserving this year for her assistance in the debate.

...and over on CNN, Kathy Griffin kisses the crotch of Anderson Cooper, who being openly gay, probably doesn't appreciate an unattractive, sexually aggressive middle-aged skank at eye level with his privates.
Oddly, it seems the perfect way to usher in this particular new year and obama's second term.
