Mark, I often see and/or hear Coyotes howling at about 4am 20ft from my house. I have many "wild" animals wondering around my place. Deer, Skunks, Coyotes, Bobcats, Hawks, Rabbits, Squirrels, Rats, as well as other vermin from Rockwall, Sacramento, Seal Beach, West Fargo, etc. [Razz]

Haven't seen any Badgers... BUTT, with ALL due respect to the original poster, Joe:

Badgers

(I JUST couldn't resist!) HA!

Yea Phil! Looked just like those critters... white masked face. Badgers also eat people so I always carry a sidearm when I go out there. Typically there are more rattle snakes than badgers out there and the number of Jackrabbits is astounding!!

..but a nice NEW Year's Day for IDAHO - BSU beat Oklahoma 43-42 in OT in the Fiesta Bowl on a fantastic trick play... a fitting ending for a perfect season for our favorite Western Idaho university.

..what a game! *whew* - Monte

After getting home at around 11pm from closing booth, just chilled out and called a few cousins & had a shot glass of Amaretto Di Sarono to bring in the New Year. After that, went to bed. Hmmmmmmmmmm, nice & relaxing which is far better than getting drunk and regretting it the next day. [Smile]

I ran the booth until the last show let out at 9:30pm. Then off to a friends for drinks and dinner. At the stroke of midnight, we jumped in the pool in their neighborhood. This is the 12th year of this, sometimes idiotic, tradition and we had a double digit turnout for the first time. We use different pools most years but we almost always have to jump a fence to make it happen. It wasn't cold enough here to need "Liquid Courage", in fact this was probably the best year I have been. The worst is when you have to break the ice to jump in. Some say that it is a "cleansing" to start the new year but there are others that say there is no good reason at all. Either way, I realize every year about 11:59 and 45 seconds that we just aren't very bright.

Monte, congrats to you and the rest of the Bronco Nation, that was easily the best game I have ever watched. The Hook and Ladder and a modified Statue of Liberty plays in the same game, and they both worked, unbelievable. (BTW, Wikipedia already makes mention of Boise State on the Statue of Liberty Play web page )

Happy New Year!!!

Went with friends to our local pub and partied till 3am, one block from all the maddest of Times Square. I live in the Times Square Theatre District zone. It's hard to get anywhere that night in my neighborhood.

HAPPY NEW YEAR !! [beer] [beer]

I had my usual NYE party. Singed my right eyelashes trying to light a cigarette for a friend of mine.

I made up for all the 28 year olds who DIDN'T drink by being a 29 year old that drank heavily and provided enough bar for every other 20 something to drink whatever they want.

Ask Adam, he had um... half a drink?

Well Bathtub Scott, knowing "Cowboy" Adam, I'm sure he drank his "usual"... sarsaparilla. Oh, ummmm, on the rocks. [Wink] [Razz] [evil]
