HAPPY NEW YEAR 2021

2021: How bad could it be, right?

Just wanted to wish everyone a happy new year in 2021. We all got fucking ROCKED by 2020 at some degree. Mine ended with my beloved cat (he's basically our son) on death's door, but he's going to make a full recovery after surgery. So things are actually looking up for me. It's literally the first time this year that something good happened for us (and only because something REALLY bad happened first).

Of course there's no way that simply being "2021" means everything will suddenly be better. But we have hope that things will improve, with an amazing vaccine already being distributed (thanks Ugur Sahin and Ozlem Tureci for creating one version), we actually can fathom an end to this entire mess.

We lost some pretty amazing, inspirational people this year. Kobe Bryant, Hana Kimura, Eddie Van Halen, Little Richard, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Chadwick Boseman, Alex Trebek, Brodie Lee. And of course people in smaller circles that we know personally. Honor their memories as you see fit.

8 minutes to go for me, I think it will feel like a bit of a relief. How bad could it be, right?

PS thanks to my wife for this wonderful absinthe for christmas. Duplais Blanche, highly recommended

Happy New Years to all of the OG Revsceners and new ones as well (there are dozens!)

Can't believe we've all been on this website now for almost 20 years!

The silver lining from having to shutdown the restaurant early this year is that I can go home and countdown with my family for the first time in like 20 years.

Classy night in for us.

Pizza, wine, and binge watching Recess.
It sounds sad but I'm actually quite enjoying this. No hangover for me tomorrow!

Goodbye Dumpster Fire of a year 2020 and welcome a less damaging one?

One can only hope. If and when things get back to normal, I want to see the regular gang at On Lok, LOL.

Wonton on me for everybody that usually shows up. And free Flip Sausages at Squint Lake.

Similar night for us. Minus the wine, and swap Recess with the UK office. What a terrific show. Apples to oranges, but I favor it over the US version personally.
Surprised I made it to midnight. Probably only the second time in the last five years.
Happy new year everyone. Let's make the best of it.
