Happy New Year

"I never met a dame who didn't understand a good slap in the face, or a slug from a forty-five."

No, that's not a quote from Howard Dean, but rather one uttered by a Humphrey Bogart type character in Woody Allen's film Play It Again, Sam.

It just happened to come to mind when I thought of the great Speakeasy-themed party hosted by our friends Chris and Dawn (that's them above) on New Year's Eve. They rule, by the way.

Oh, and here's a picture of me and my friend John. I like it because I look kinda pissed off, like maybe I was thinking about the grim task of trudging back to work tomorrow.
