<< Barkley Barks Again | Main | 25 >> January 04, 2007 >> 2007 I spent the first moments of 2007 in a doghouse, smoking a cigar. It occurred to me that never again in my life will I be able to claim that I rang in a new year in a doghouse... but also I really don't think I'll ever be in a doghouse at midnight again, period. If I am I will seriously have to reevaluate my life decisions. Maybe make some kind of resolution to better the future, like not smoking cigars or perhaps finding a real house. With blankets and a bed and a widescreen TV. Not a doghouse. It also strikes me that the new year never really feels very new anymore, not these days. Long before the calendars change over, we've got 2007 model cars and EA Sports 2007 video games. We've got special 2007 commemorative bondage gear that was manufactured in China loooooong before 2006 was put to bed, before it even found its pajamas in the laundry hamper. Commercialism jumps the gun, and it just makes the midnight ball drop into a kind of strange deju vu afterthought. Still, congrats to all for surviving one more year in Bizarro World.
