What are Y'all doing for New Year?

[billyscott]

First, Happy New Year to all TGOers. 

I'm going to do what I've done the last ten years, stay home, have a few drinks, watch the neighborhood fireworks and wait till my next door occupier gets drunk and shoots up all his ammo in his back yard while his wife screams "STOP IT DONNIEEEE" at him. 

Just wondered if anybody else is as big a dud as I am. 

[2.ooohhh]

Not into the whole downtown scene so the wife and I are Stargazing at Dyer Observatory followed by a midnight hike at Radnor Lake. Simple but fun.

[TripleDigitRide]

Yep, I'm staying home, too. I probably won't even drink. Happy New Year!

[rugerla1]

Well, Happy New Year to you as well. I'm going to hunt in the morning, maybe all day if I don't get something early. If I do get one early, I may go do some shooting if I can find a place open. Or I may go home, eat a cheeseburger, and call it a day :up:

Just looked at Dyer's websight and it says it's closed till February. Me and the wife are going to Burger Republic early and eating with some friends. Probably be asleep by 10. Lol.

[TNMTBik3r]

I'm staying home too. Have a case of beer, build the wife a fire, and watch some of the Bowl games that are on. 

 

And Happy New Year to all!

Nothing. Just another day to me.

Yep, and Radnor is "closed" after dark. It's a special New Year's Eve event, reservations and such required.

Staying at home, hanging out on TGO and may have a beer or two. No big deal to me...just another day, plus it's going to screw me up writing checks to pay my bills! Happy New Year to all my TGO Brothers and Sisters!

Working tonight until 2am. I'm sure I'll encounter a drunk idiot or two.

[Smokin45]

Staying home and will be asleep by 10  exciting !

[Ted S.]

Probably working like I did on Christmas... Sent from somewhere in the cosmos using magic...and bacon.

Cold fun.

 

Will be having some friends over. Unfortunately, they won't be able to stay until midnight.

[Steelharp]

My wife has informed me we will be having an exciting evening at church.

[Randall53]

I'll probably have a couple margaritas, will definitely stay in since I've got a terrible chest cold, watch bowl games until I can't keep my eyes open, take a dose of NyQuil and hit the sack.

Happy new year to everyone!!!!

[vr1967]

I'm looking off the side of the drill ship (oil rig) at the lights of Luanda, Angola. I hope to be heading back stateside tomorrow.

[bersaguy]

I want to wish everyone on TGO a happy and prosperous NEW YEAR. My plans are same as have been last many years. Stay home, watch TV in Bedroom till I fall a sleep. I learned many years ago that the new year still comes if your awake of a sleep so I quit waiting up for it to happen............ :up: :up:

[Troutburger]

Feedin babies all nite here...milk party at my place...

[R_Bert]

I suppose I'll try to figure out a few of these TGO AR parts (as in identify them). Will surf again the web for a suitable barrel too.

[Guest Lester Weevils]

Staying home as usual. Might make what passes for a black russian to drink (sugar, instant coffee, 1 oz PGA). Or maybe add some half-n-half and make it a fake white russian. Maybe get fancy and use chocolate milk rather than half-n-half for a fake mudslide.

 

Working tonight until 2am. I'm sure I'll encounter a drunk idiot or two.

 

Good luck and happy hunting! Are New Years Eve's better hunting for drunks than ordinary weekend nights? Just wondering because they run so many radio/TV ads about the risk of getting caught DUI, and its been a few years but when I was still playing music on NY Eve, the crowds seemed to leave earlier than typical weekend audiences. Slightly different customer profile on NY Eve-- Folks that maybe its the only time of the year they go out. Eat, drink a glass of champagne, toot the horn, then off home early for the annual nookie. :)

Here's a snapshot of my evening, once I get off work:

 

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. 

[Raoul]

Smoked pork shoulder, home made potato salad and baked beans, beer, bourbon, and a Bond flick.

From Russia With Love.

 

Happy New Year y'all

Same as last year - sleeping in the rocker.  George Dickel helps me sleep.
