    For about 15+yrs we have stayed home. Almost got killed by a Drunk driver coming home from a party back then. Got hit by a Drunk driver 2yrs before that.

    So we stay home, watch movies, snack on small goodies until about 2300hrs, then sleep.

    Well broke up with girlfriend yesterday but wouldn't have made a difference. Staying home. Did the NYC thing as a kid plus parties. I like peace and quiet. Happy New Years folks.

    Hi...
    We will have our traditional New Year's Eve dinner of crab legs and steamed shrimp.
    Probably watch college football bowl game...expect my wife to fall asleep pong before midnight. We stopped the party thing years ago and don't miss it one bit.
    No alcohol required... I no longer drink other than a beer once in a while with dinner when we eat out. We eat out fairly often... I think I had two beers this year.

    I guess I'll stay home and go to bed as I normally do.

    So, to the rest of you have a good time, be safe and I'll see you next year!

    I'll stay up for the ball drop though.

    Currently brewing an American Blonde Ale. I plan to drink one homebrewed Hefeweizen later sitting on the couch with my four canines climbing on top of me. My dogs are afraid of fireworks and most everyone near me loves them.

    The weather here, will slow a few folks down, I hope. Freezing rain, right now, and then turning to snow soon. It wouldn't have made a difference here, as we are long past the party stages of life. Playing scrabble with my wife, and then going up to the shop, to reload for alittle while. Might make it to midnight, but I wouldn't bet on it.

    Staying home, like usual. The missus has to get up to go to work at 5 AM anyway.

    Our "partying" in the New Year ended long long ago... Don't miss it one bit.


    Happy New Year! everyone, regardless of if you celebrate or not!

    Bought some Jagermeister. Going to have a bonfire, drink up and shoot guns in the air.

    Kidding about the guns. Got the bonfire ready to go but we will be in bed about 2100 latest and we won't be doing much Jager. Got to work in the morning.

    I heard years ago, that the LAPD Cops park their patrol vehicles under the Harbor Fwy overpasses at 2345hrs to 0015hrs. Protect themselves from all the bullets coming down that are fired up into the air by gangbangers.

    Pretty much like the rest of ya’ll. Just made myself a ribeye and baked potato. I worked today. Have off tomorrow. If I make it to 9:00 it will surprise me. I quit drinking about 15yrs ago.

    I'm a drinker (Wife is Not) and we often go out but not on amateur night. Prolly be in bed early like most of you. We've had a fire going in the fireplace all day. Been a rainy dreary day. May pour myself a BA Stout after while.

    I'm thinking I'm gonna get the Prime Rib special at the local cafe'
    a couple decades ago, there were famous for their prime rib, they had it every saturday night...I'm not a regular, and I haven't seen prime rib mentioned in the newspaper ad for many years...Same family owns it...So I guess I'll see if the Son has learned anything from Ma and Pa?

    Also, I have one Minnesota legal firework fountain...if I'm still up at 12 ?

    Loading up some 60gr 5.56 boolits I made from 22lr brass. Trimmed the meplats all uniform and tried to re-tip a bit. Going to run them downrange and check the speeds and spreads with the labradar tomorrow...if it ever stops raining.

    I'd rather shoot on a range full of the clueless than drive on the roads tonight.
