As the song goes "What are you doing New Year's Eve ?
The same thing that I do the other 364 nights of the year.
Looking back what were some of your more "interesting" NYE experiences ?
In 1976, a friend and I spent New Year's Eve in Times Square. It was a lot grittier back then, and the crowd was pretty rough. Also, the angle was such that from where we were standing, we couldn't even SEE the ball (or apple, I think it was) drop!
Which ones could you say "not so much" when remembering them ?
All the rest of them!
Do /did you have any NYE traditions ?"
Nah. It's just not that big a deal to me.
Bonus Question:
Have you written the year 2012 as of yet ?
Every day before I leave school, I write the next day's date on the board so that I don't have to do it in the morning. Before I left for Winter Break, I wrote "Monday, January 2, 2012."
Extra Credit Question:
lol What was the last thing you said or did that made folks a little "nervous" ?
Again, before leaving for Winter Break, I reminded the kids that exam week would be coming up right after we get back.

Two come to mind. One year we spent the evening sitting and talking to an old widow, whose husband had died sometime that year at the nursing home. Nancy thought it would be nice to make sure she didn't spend the evening alone. No party, food, drinks, just the three of us sitting and talking until 9pm when our host needed to go to bed.
Maybe more memorable than that was New Years Eve 1999. Remember Y2K, when the world was going to stop working because computers didn't know that 19 was followed by 20? The company that owned the nursing home, at the time, decided that all administrators had to be in the facility to handle emergencies. So Nancy arranged a News Eve party for all 6 department heads in the dining room of the home. I was the only spouse there. At least she had food catered and I ate well.

I occasionally come up with something while announcing at the track that makes my boss a little nervous. One that I can think of is I have told people that after our racing fuel station closes "If you want gas after ---PM you have to stop by the place on 16th & Rockwell on your way home. They serve Chile 31 ways."
