Happy New Year everybody!

2019 was a crappy year of me particularly and will by happy for the next decade.

One of the good things of a layoff is the ability to clear ones mind. It also helps to give a large severance package.

I might be at the evil facebook. Oculus group. They have been courting me. Amazon has as well. The EDA industry continues....I am tired of it.

Anyway; new beginnings and I hope the best for everybody.

Oh an Reppy; hope you are going to fanime again! :D

Happy New Year! I know I missed a bunch of folks for whom it's already 2020 but you would live on the other side of the world.

May you all maintain an even strain through the year. :)

Happy New Year to you too!

Happy New Year! Fireworks in Edinburgh were great.

This year is starting to be a total memefest already. Just saw Rick Astley performing Never Gonna Give You Up live, and Ainsley Harriott dancing along to it.

Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
and never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
and auld lang syne?

Chorus:
For auld lang syne, my jo,
for auld lang syne,
we'll tak' a cup o' kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.

And surely ye'll be your pint-stoup!
and surely I'll be mine!
And we'll tak' a cup o’ kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.

Chorus

We twa hae run about the braes,
and pou'd the gowans fine;
But we've wander'd mony a weary fit,
sin' auld lang syne.

Chorus

We twa hae paidl'd in the burn,
frae morning sun till dine;
But seas between us braid hae roar'd
sin' auld lang syne.

Chorus

And there's a hand, my trusty fiere!
and gie's a hand o' thine!
And we'll tak' a right gude-willie waught,
for auld lang syne.

Chorus

Having a large package is better.

Worst case, they'll lock you up but they don't play country music in jails. As far as I know.

Cats aren't real, Bill Clinton famously had then all replaced with surveillance drones, an extension of Reagan's equally successful campaign to replace birds with drones.
