Happy new year everyone!
I dont think anything of those doomsday theories or anthing, but I think still that each new year should be celebrated, and I think it is a gift that we can continue on having fun, love, family and friends as well as pain, sadness, death and decay.
It is the cycle of things on this planet, and we need all of them to be able to live to the fullest, and I for one am glad this cycle goes on.
Happy new year means proof of life! 
Well then.
"The same procedure as every year, James"
Cheers!
"Believe"!?
WTF has believing have to do with incidents of colossal dimensions?
Must it first be yourself sinking in oil mud, starving or sloughtered alive, before pleasing to take notice of what is going on?
What´s out of sight can´t be, pal, let´s switch to the sports channel.

I think we should just reduce it to wishing a happy new year guys.

My mother's mother lived with us throughout World War II. She had buried three husbands, raised eight children on a family subsistence farm in northwestern Oklahoma, been bankrupted twice, first by the Dust Bowl, then by the Great Depression, and had five sons in combat in the war. She was always even tempered, had a smile and a good word for everybody.
She was not unrealistic. She knew from personal experience that the world was filled with disappointment and danger. We all do. But my grandmother also knew that a positive attitude was a necessity for survival.
My grandfather, her second husband, was a Socialist who came close to winning a seat in the U.S. Senate. When he learned that their neighbor on the next farm was illiterate, he didn't complain about the dysfunctional society that had allowed this to happen. He taught his neighbor how to read.
So I say "Happy New Year!"...an expression of hope and encouragement--qualities we will need to face the tasks before us.
