I will be spending the x-mas, new year's time in HIGH ALERT, which unfortunately means that if there are computer problems, I'm going to work. Aside from nearly everyone in the Information Services department being on High Alert, I am also on-call for this debacle. Hope to be checking in here, though.

I'll be at work, waiting for the world to fall apart and have people call us in terror, begging for help because something went boom. I'll be too busy watching Dick Clark...call back later

Does anyone know of any sort of crazy event that is taking place at midnight December 31st. When I say crazy I mean good crazy, nothing of an apocalyptic nature. I'm thinking more along the lines of skydiving or bungee jumping, but a bit more original since it is happening at the turn of the century. Anyone? Anyone?
