Out with the old and in with the new

Well, a lot has happened throughout 2005. There were hook-ups (Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck, Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, Jennifer Aniston and Vince Vaughn to name a few)...break-ups (Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt, Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey, Paris and Paris, to name a few)... Hurricanes Rita and Katrina proved to be the biggest bitches ever...Tom Cruise jumped on a couch in the name of love...an earthquake leveled parts of Asia...Oprah appeared on David Letterman for the first time in years...Gilligan passed away...one pope died and a new one was elected...the war in Iraq continues...Bombings rocked London subways...the battle over Terry Schiavo's life was finally ended...Gasoline prices skyrocketed.

New movies and tv shows came out in 2005. The best movies that I have seen in 2005 were: King Kong, Harry Potter and The Goblet of Fire, The Wedding Crashers, The 40 Year-Old Virgin, and Crash. Also some very good new tv shows came out. My favorites are Supernatural and The Colbert Report.

This year started out very wet and windy. Storms blew across California, causing flooding and even some deaths from falling trees. Even the Rose Parade was not safe from the storms, as the parade was drenched with rain for the first time in some 55 years. Here in Bakersfield, we got quite a bit of rain over the New Year's weekend. Not to mention the wind. It was almost odd yesterday as I left Olive Garden after eating lunch, as it was sunny, yet it was also raining. The lights flickered a little bit in the evening and I was very glad the power didn't end up going out.

Well, it is time for something new, so this year, I will be posting a new "Funny Stuff" quote from Dave Barry in 2006. I got one of those quote-a-day calendars by Dave Barry for Christmas, so I will have plenty of material for this upcoming year. Besides, the man is funny!

I will also be changing my template....again - hehe. Stay tuned!
