Happy New Year!December 31, 2005
Just a couple of things to start your year off right:
Officer Attacked by Pack of Angry Chihuahuas
That was the original title of the article, which at first I thought must be from the Onion and not the San Francisco Chronicle. I bet that the Fremont Police Department asked them to change it, though. Heh. I once knew an officer who screamed on the radio for code-3 cover when surrounded by a pack of five year-olds in a field. Later, he said, "But they were BIG five year-olds!"
Lala and I both think THIS is the best video ever. One take, yo. In the backyard. LOVE it.
And lastly, BART tracks, because they're happy things in the rain:
Enjoy your New Year's Eve celebration, wherever it is, be safe, and if you're home, open the door at midnight and welcome in the New Year. May this be the best one ever. Thanks for being with me, folks. All love.
Happy New Year, Rachel and Lala!

Happy New Year to you and yours!
Uh, Could you send some of those cute firemen friends of yours up here to Guerneville with a BIG ladder to get me off my roof if it comes to that? It's going to be an interesting NYE up here in the North Bay! :)

I saw that on KTVU's web site! I was laughing hysterically and demanded that the article be shared for training in line-up last night! I remember the call and the officer you're referring to....LOL!

Happy New Year! That video rawks. The big finale, when they go for the lift and the singer's torso is out of frame? That's awesome.

Where did you get that great dance video link?? Silly dancing makes me unreasonably happy, and that absolutely made my day.
Happy New Year!

Happy New Year to you both as well!

How is it possible to miss two people you haven't even MET? Weird but true...
Anyway, happy, happy New Year's to you and Lala, and here's hoping maybe we actually get to be in the same place at the same time in 2006!!
