And the extra-terrestrials.
Hope everyone had a good New Year's Eve and recovered nicely for New Year's Day.We had a very nice time yesterday. We had a bunch of people over and re-watched nearly the entire fourth season of Lost (Season 3 Episode 23 - Season 4 Episode 12) as a refresher before the premiere and to get a few people back up to speed who had missed some of it. It was nice to move very little and bask in the comforting glow of JRiver Media Center.We also enjoyed the traditional New Year's Pork and Sauerkraut dinner, which was nice (Pennsylvania Dutch good luck tradition). Hadn't done that since leaving PA, but it was nice this year!
