Happy New Years to everyone! I pray that 2008 is the best year for each of you and your families.
In the New Year, may your right hand always be stretched out in friendship, never in want.
WISHES FOR THE NEW YEAR
May your hair, your teeth, your abs, and your stocks not fall; and may your blood pressure, your triglycerides, your cholesterol, your white blood count and your mortgage interest not rise.
May you get a clean bill of health from your dentist, your doctor, your plumber, and the IRS.
May you find a way to travel from anywhere to anywhere during rush hour in
less than an hour, and when you get there may you find a parking space.
May Friday evening, December 31, find you seated around the dinner table,
together with your beloved family and cherished friends, ushering in the New Year ahead. You will find the food better, the environment quieter, the cost much cheaper, and the pleasure much more fulfilling than anything else you might ordinarily do that night.
May you wake up on January 1 finding that the world has not come to an end,
the lights work, the water faucets flow, and the sky has not fallen.
May you go to the bank on Monday morning, January 3 and find your account
is in order, your money is still there, and any mistakes are in your favor.
May you ponder on January 4, "How did this ultramodern civilization of ours
manage to get itself traumatized by a possible slip of a blip on a chip made out of sand?"
May you have the strength to go through a year of presidential campaigning,
and may some of the promises made be kept. May you believe at least half
of what the candidates propose, and may those elected fulfill at least half
of what they promise, and the miracle of reducing taxes and balancing budgets happen.
In the New Year, may your right hand always be stretched out in friendship, never in want.
