Happy New Year!

As the festivities get under way around the world, take a moment to reflect on 2008. It has been a rough year, with international tensions constantly in flux, some natural disasters that seemed merciless, and the occasional wack-o in your local electronics district. And I for one, am thankful that my life has been so easy when compared to the big picture. As everyone around the world has there own traditions on New Years Eve, the most frequented is the Babylonian tradition of the New Years Resolution. What's mine you ask? Well, besides the annual "I will work out everday, eat right, and maybe cut back on the cigarettes", I am gonna have to say its time to start watching Anime again, if only to retain what little Japanese I still remember from college. On the plus side, I am sure to get a full dose of slapstick humor, gratuitous boobs, and giant robots. While on the other hand, i will also get a continuous vibrato of whiny protagonists, never ending flashbacks and feathered hair. Yeah, its a love hate thing.

Happy New Year!
