Well, I guess

a lot of us knew this was coming. We have a strong core going into 2010, I guess (CLICHE ALERT!!!) we can hope that next year is the year.

You see, wire telegraph is a kind of a very, very long cat. You pull his tail in New York and his head is meowing in Los Angeles. Do you understand this? And radio operates exactly the same way: you send signals here, they receive them there. The only difference is that there is no cat. - Albert Einstein

Didn't like her? Try having had to listen to this one

Blue mountains high .. Blue valleys low
I don't know which way we will go ..
One summer dream .. one summer dream ..
