He held the explosive container close to his body and aimed toward the horizon.
“Just a bit more,” he said through clenched teeth as he struggled to make the adjustment he needed.
“Come on,” urged his younger companion quietly.
“Just another moment,” he hissed back, “These things can’t be rushed or the whole thing will just explode.”
The clock began to strike the hour…Bong…Bong…Bong
“It’s almost time,” a female voice called upon approach.
Bong…Bong…Bong
“Is it ready?” another feminine voice chimed in.
Bong…Bong…Bong
“Patience,” the younger man replied anxiously.
Bong…Bong…Bong…POW!
“Ha haaaaa,” Artie turned smiling at his partner and their dates. He filled each one’s glass with the bubbling champagne then quickly set the bottle aside.
Artie slipped his arm around the slim waisted brunette at his side as Jim entwined his arm with the beautiful blonde beside him.
“Happy New Year!” they toasted each other and sipped the chilled bubbly under the velvet, star lit sky.

Hello American Beauties! Et Bonne Annee, Bonne Sante! It has been 2010 already in Paris France for three hours and twenty five minutes, and I am swimming in a small ocean of Champagne, having dutifully had one glass for each of you! ( I am slupr-ised I can still type anything vaguely coherent! )
HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL! MAY 2010 bring you all health, wealth, happiness, joy, peace and whatever else your heart might desire! As I am in the midst of uncharacteristically unbridled display of affection

Yeeeeaaaaaah 2010!! Goodbye 2009! Woke up to 7" of new snow and it's still falling. Let the New Year and the shoveling commence! Pet I sipped champagne at midnight for you as we spoke of. It made you crinkle your nose and become a bit woozy but then you had some more sushi and you were fine! Hope everyone has a terrific New Year!! My best to all of you!!! ;D ;D ;D

I'm afraid I slept through New Year's (had a couple of very busy days and a couple of bad sleeping nights and it caught up with me). But the New Year arrived anyway.
Has to be better than 2009 for me, anyway. In fact, a couple of my horoscopes indicate this is going to be the best year of my life. Of course, that means I'm going to win a $100 million jackpot, right? Probably means no more surgeries or treatments--and that's ok by me!
Happy New Year All!
