Hey, It’s 2012!

Happy New Year Everyone!

First, a big Thank You to WordPress.com for this very cool 2011 annual stats report:

Here’s an excerpt:

Madison Square Garden can seat 20,000 people for a concert. This blog was viewed about 64,000 times in 2011. If it were a concert at Madison Square Garden, it would take about 3 sold-out performances for that many people to see it.

Next, the best of the images I’ve been collecting for days:

And finally, since it is 2012

The Mayans are coming! I'm Squared!

… I’ll include that damned song after all:

I want ice water.

      Thank you Sue, once again, for your insightful and heartfelt words. And rest assured, my sharp (but dulling) mind is hard at work planning a (not so) brilliant, year-long campaign of doomsday mockery. Happy New Year Sue! :D

    IM,
    I hope that 2012 is better than 2011 for all of us. Of course, with the end of the world coming, it will at least be interesting . . .

  7. El Guapo says:

    Some of those images summed it up perfectly for me. Especially the one to 2011 from 2012.
    Have a great year, one fantastic day at a time.

    Happy New Year to you … thus also wishing you the best in 2012.

    Impressive stats. Heck, you had more in 2011 than I have had since August 2008. Well done and keep up the good work.

    Ten days too late (where did those ten days go?), but all the same, Happy New Year! May you all find peace, enlightenment and contentment. At least until the war with the Megasquid begins.

  12. writerdood says:

    I can’t believe it. I’m still writing 2011 on my reports. It will be weeks before I get it straight. Now I need to listen to The Final Countdown again. Thanks a lot. I think my kids know that one by heart.
