So every year I stay up on New Years Eve and put together a HUGE Jigsaw puzzle...and reflect on the last year. In this case much of the last year was indeed a Jigsaw Puzzle, waiting for the Pieces of this Corrupt Morass to basically fall into place. I read the CNN Top Story list and was almost laughing at how much they Forgot ? So this is my list...I pray it is a little more accurate reflecting WHAT needs remembering....
Here is a Random List of WHAT I will remember, as a Bloggeress....And Remember this is in NO particular order.
( BUT if you think I forgot Something, please do let me know )

Excellent post enigma, I love how you lumped Ford and Lay into "I ain't crying". Got my vote on that one.
If I haven't already, I will link to you tomorrow. All of us in the "reality based community" need to stick close together if we're ever gonna reclaim the real America from the troglodytes.

You know what is great? Not just that the Dems took over congress, but the fact that more and more of our population are fed up and willing to let this administration and congress know about it. Excellent post - you are super!
Good job! For me, I would add how happy I was to find your blog & know I am not the only one throwing cotton balls & swearing at the TV. See, something good did happen during the year. ~~ D.K.
