I enjoy these so much, wehether I'm on them or not. I did really want to be on this one, but a flu kept me in bed all that day. I'm really missing being on these.

Fiftyonefifty kicked himself a whole bunch, and I don't think he deserved most of his self inflicted punishment. However I owe him one kick: He incorrectly attributed the me with the idea for the New Year's Show. It was in fact Ken Fallon's idea (and it was a great idea), and it was the HPR community, all together, that pulled it off. From setting up the servers, to providing the audio content, the HPR community did it all. We pulled together and produced an event so good that I don't even have enough words to describe what happened here. All I did was volunteer to record it. I would be a fraud if I took any more credit for it than that. 

I am forever thankful to the people of this community for letting me be a part of it.
