Wishing you all a grand new year. 2004 was kind to me, as I finally was able to fix some health issues that I have had for 20 years. (OK, not perfectly, but it was a tremendous improvement!) And so, here is a wish that 2005 will be kind to all of you. Have a great year! 
You too have a Happy New Year! This may be my final post of 2004, and I want to go out on a cheery note.
Let’s all party safely, eat a lot, wear silly hats and make silly noises! I too had a health problem resolved, so here’s my toast:
TO MODERN MEDICINE!
May last year have been the best year of y’alls life and may it pale in comparison to 2005.
Happy New Year everyone.
Gotta feeling 2005 for me will be made up of noise, change, uncertainty about taking steps along a path never walked before – but it will be a good year. It’ll be exciting, cool, and soul-fulfilling. There’ll be serenity mixed in as well. An Ice Wolf needs the symphony of silence once in a while.
Good fortune and power to all of you!
