A very Happy New Year to all my fellow grogs, from a rather damp and soggy UK.

Well, it's also rather damp and soggy here in the Northern Neck of Virginia. Happy New Year Grogheads!!!

Happy New Year.

Should we give a prize to whomever manages to be the first one to get used to writing 2016 for the date?
All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

Happy New Year's!

In my boring old man fashion, I'll be ringing in the new year playing a game or asleep.  :)

Happy New Year guys...I just thought this summed it up:



...I'd rather stay here
With all the madmen
Than perish with the sadmen roaming free

And I'd rather play here
With all the madmen
For I'm quite content they're all as sane as me

"I must not fear.
    Fear is the mind-killer.
    Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
    I will face my fear.
    I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
    And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
    Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain."  - Frank Herbert

Happy 2016 to all my Grog-Comrades. Hope all of your Supply Lines stay intact and it's always shitty weather over your enemy's Capital.

It's so strange with him. I wasn't much for the Tin Machine material but started getting back into his 90's stuff. Loved Outside and then he released The Earthling and I didn't care for it at all. Put it on tonight and can't stop listening to it. After being a life long fan, like yourself, I thought I had finally caught up to his time zone but he did it again.

And now he has a new album dropping this week on his birthday (Jan 8th) when he will be 69 years old. I can't even wrap my head around that :)

Happy New Year! to all Grogs O0

... i love the smell of blackpowder in the morning  :D
smells like New Years morn   :)

my fireworks selection worked well, we had a clear sky, no fog development from the fireworks display also and with 4°C quit warm for that night.
there were 'heavy shelling' all around in the neighborhood, but no damage  ...just like it has to be!
(and i did not heard one single siren from firetruck, ambulance or cops squawking in my whole area the whole night, which is a good sign my whole part of the town had a wonderful eve and a good start into the new year)

Well apart from messaging Bob and getting drunk answerphone messages from employees I saw in the new year playing eu4 - didn't even know the time until the fireworks extravaganza went off outside - 'oh, it's new year' and back to pillaging Muslims

Happy new year fine men of the forum
