Happy New Year!

2007 came and went without and before we knew it I'm suddenly a year older, hairier, but still the coolest guy you know. The world has shifted as well as my personal life, but tonight all thoughts of accomplishements and failures are tossed aside in favor of strong drink and celebration. Yes folks I will be getting drunk tonight and it will be glorious.

The beginning of the new year is bitter sweet as the gym will be packed with folks who will break their calorie counting resolution by February. Annoying this people can be with their slow workouts and constant resting on equipment, but I guess a few them will stick with it. At least they did sign up and make an effort.

So many people wish to change themselves for the better this time of year and I am no different. I resolve to break out in Neil Diamond songs at inappropriate times just to make everyones' day a little more surreal. Wiwille: sharing the love since 1975.

Happy New Year from Erik's Ramblings!

  4. You must know my co-worker Jake. He broke out in this song at work one day, then I suggested maybe it wasn't good for a 25-yr-old man to belt out "Touching Me, Touching You" while working with children on a playground!

    Hot August night
    And the leaves hanging down
    And the grass on the ground smellin' sweet
    Move up the road to the outside of town
    And the sound of that good gospel beat
    Sits a ragged tent
    Where there ain't no trees
    And that gospel group tellin' you and me
    It's Wille, Wiwille, say
    Wiwille's Traveling Salvation Show
    Pack up the babies and grab the old ladies
    And ev'ryone goes, 'cause everyone knows
    Wiwille's show
