So I'll be bringing in the new year right here on MacNN. I'm about to step out and grab some fast food, and I'll dig through my small DVD library for something to watch, but otherwise it's just me and you people.

Happy New Year!!

Lateralus · Dec 31, 2006, 05:52 PM

Yeah, same here. How pathetic of us.

Oh well. At least I have a ton of beer all to myself.

Peter · Dec 31, 2006, 05:56 PM

mac128k-1984 · Dec 31, 2006, 05:59 PM

I have twin girls that are under a year old. Me and the wife don't get out any more. No regrets either, spending time with the little ones is so much fun

Parvez · Dec 31, 2006, 06:58 PM

Yeah, same here. I was suppose to go to a party but it was cancelled for some reasons. Just hanging around with friends in my house and that's it. I was gonna go to Times Square but its so crowded that I dont even feel like going.

turtle777 · Dec 31, 2006, 07:22 PM

I hate New Years Eve anyways. All that partying is not for me.

I'm gonna watch the Packers beat up the Bears

Blasphemy · Dec 31, 2006, 07:26 PM

Kenneth · Dec 31, 2006, 07:34 PM

Sorry.. I will miss the event.

alligator · Dec 31, 2006, 08:17 PM

Blasphemy · Dec 31, 2006, 08:19 PM

Oh man the Borg just nabbed Data!

Kevin · Dec 31, 2006, 09:20 PM

I am only here till Bekah gets home.

mania · Dec 31, 2006, 09:41 PM

Its not even 9 and my wife and kids are out. Anyone got any good games we can play?

Blasphemy · Dec 31, 2006, 09:42 PM

Even though you all are at home, will you do anything to celebrate? I may just down a bottle of Corona.

imitchellg5 · Dec 31, 2006, 09:51 PM

I'll watch some movies and make some popcorn. My mom made some cinnamon rolls too. I'll probably chat on iChat all night too.

Kenneth · Dec 31, 2006, 09:56 PM

a MacNN iChat room?

imitchellg5 · Dec 31, 2006, 10:00 PM

No, with my friends. But I wouldn't mind starting one. imitchellg5@mac.com

This is going to be a big year for the 'nn Forums.....I cannot wait to see the new clothes in the very near future!

Dork. · Dec 31, 2006, 11:11 PM

At least nobody was lame enough to post here at 12:00 exactly.

Happy new year! I am currently enjoying that first Guinness of the new year, starting 2007 in the right mood!

sek929 · Dec 31, 2006, 11:28 PM

I'm here now, 5 Cape Codders later......

sigh, boring night

Benton · Dec 31, 2006, 11:41 PM

Dork,
Does lurking count?

Blasphemy · Jan 1, 2007, 12:21 AM

I was watching the 'Weight Gain 4000' episode of south park at midnight (it was recorded to my DVR)

I love that episode

Nope, lurking is OK. Timing your posts so that you chime in at 12:00 exactly is lame.

Take it from the guy who calls himself Dork.!

macgeek2005 · Jan 1, 2007, 12:52 AM

I'm gonna be asleep when the clock strikes 12:00. When the clock strikes 1:00, the first spirit will visit me. When the clock strikes 2:00, the ghost of christmas present will visit. When the clock strikes 3:00, the ghost of christmas yet to come will haunt me in my sleep.

Blasphemy · Jan 1, 2007, 12:53 AM

I think I'm going to sleep soon

Mastrap · Jan 1, 2007, 01:17 AM

Kept it quiet this year. Had friends over for dinner and drinks, payed some cards. Everybody has just left, so time for bed.

Gossamer · Jan 1, 2007, 01:58 AM

Almost didn't get to leave the house due to the blizzard, but I made it to a friends for some games and fun, just got back. Happy 2007.

Lateralus · Jan 1, 2007, 02:09 AM

Well, it's 2007. And whattayaknow, this year still sucks as much as the last one.

You've inspired me. I'm gonna go whip out my Season 3 set and see how many good eps I can find. Rainforest Schmainforest is one of my favorites.

Blasphemy · Jan 1, 2007, 02:13 AM

Beefcake! Beeeef-caaaake!

Kenneth · Jan 1, 2007, 03:20 AM

Yes, I find everyone is much more understanding when I tell them I'm an alcoholic.

Gossamer · Jan 3, 2007, 09:06 AM

"Are you drinking because it's New Year's Eve?"

"No, I'm drinking because I'm an alcoholic."

I like it.

xi_hyperon · Jan 3, 2007, 09:32 AM

The wife and I went to a neighborhood party at her boss's house. We brought homemade empenadas, which went quite well with the drinks. It was brisk out, but we all sat around their backyard firepit, enjoyed the warmth, and chatted under the stars until around 2:00 AM. I was pretty tired the next day, so I kicked back and watched movies and read the entire day.

osiris · Jan 3, 2007, 09:39 AM

I caught a cold, had a flu, and woke up from my coma at 12:23 on New Year's Day.
I missed the whole thing.
