Mark's message arrived here just fine...

Maybe you have to be more clear about that you mean you don't receive it on the specific point address you are using now! ;-)

Bye, Wilfred.

I wrote the 2nd message from /808.7. Marks's msg was not there at that time. It's not there. But my posts seem to be going out ok. Hmmm.

Ciao!

It's really the same old same old.. one continuous timeline. There's a lot of tradition behind "ringing in the new year" only because of a date. Maybe it was a conspiracy of a variety of industries [hotelier, booze, etc..] to improve or maintain sales. ;)

That would make sense, & the date of the new year changes occasionally to accommodate another corporate leader's desire to cash in on it & try to outdo the competition from another angle, as they've sewn up the original?

I skip the hoopla, go to bed early on 31/12, & if I wake up the next day & all is gone, I'll just go back to bed. (I started that bit for Y2K & kept it as I like it)

I find that sticking to a regular sleep period is indeed a good
idea. This year was the first time in many years that I
actually had two days off in a row. When Jan 1 would all on a
weekday, I'd be back at work the next day. This time Jan 2 fell
on Sunday, so that was a day off too. I wouldn't want to feel
"tired" or trip up my sleep pattern just because of a silly
midnight tradition.

Logical. I've never been big one the holidays -- would rather work them & get paid 250% for my time, than sit at home trying to figure out stuff to do when everything's closed.

My coworkers love it ("you want Xmas off? Sure; no problem, no need to work one of my days in exchange")

Most of my bosses only care that the shifts are covered as per the schedule -- the who isn't so important as the when.

For the observances that are meaningful to me, I can take time any time, work or home, to focus on the meaning & spirit of the day.

When I was a teenage business owner, & otherwise in my teens, Xmas was all about the spirit -- I'd get someone to pick me up a 40 of whiskey & invite a couple buddies over to get sloshed. . .

Once we went out in as much of a blizzard as Mission ever gets & did carolling.

In the hour before we got too cold, we were given enough money(we had no idea that would happen!) to buy full price smokes & a hot meal in a warm restaurant for all of us!
