Good Riddance, 2006! Hello, 2007!

I'm glad to see 2006 go.

For me personally, it was the best of times, it was the worst of times.

It was a year of extremes, a rollercoaster.

Suffice it to say I've had enough of 2006. I'm ready for it to end, and hope for a better 2007.

Good riddance, 2006!

My 2007 Predictions:

ISLAMIC EXTREMISTS will be the root of terror and unrest and misery and death in the world -- enemies of peace.

JIMMY CARTER will continue on his anti-Israel crusade, serve as propagandist for Hamas and like-minded groups, and cozy up to terrorists.

DEMOCRATS will work to raise state and federal taxes, and put personal power and ambition before country.

KIM JONG IL will shave his head due to a bout with lice. He'll like the look and stick with it.

JIM DOYLE will deny his involvement in the corruption smothering Wisconsin government.

TOM BARRETT will express his outrage on his inability to deal with his outrage over the crime in his dying city.

RUSS FEINGOLD will sink into a deep depression when he acknowledges that he will never fulfill his dream -- a date with Sharon Stone.

BRETT FAVRE will not retire.

ROSIE O'DONNELL will be the next celebrity photographed getting out of a limo sans underwear. (No need for the pixelation of the graphic photos due to her layers of fat.)

AL GORE will make the longest and most boring Oscar acceptance speech in Academy Awards history.

CINDY SHEEHAN will get arrested.

MICHAEL McGEE JACKSON JR. will admit to having another alias -- TITO.

JIM WEBB will write an Off Broadway play -- The Macaca Monologues.

HILLARY CLINTON will formally change her surname to Rodham, and so will her HINO Bill.

STEVE KAGEN will be sued by an 87-year-old woman after he tackles her for behaving suspiciously like a terrorist on a shuttle between DC and New York.

BARACK OBAMA will soldify himself as the Dem 2008 presidential front-runner when he opens each speech he makes by saying, "I did not have sexual relations with that woman."

MAHMOUD AHMADINEJAD will sport a Hitler-style mustache.

AL FRANKEN will not run for the Senate when he realizes that he's not good enough, he's not smart enough, and doggone it, people don't like him!

My 2007 Resolutions:

SLEEP MORE. (Sleeping sitting up doesn't count.)

EAT MORE.

LAUGH MORE.

WORRY LESS.


HAPPY NEW YEAR!
