Rockin' New Year's Eve?

[MrSplitshot]

This whole New Year's Eve ball drop thing would be a lot more entertaining if some guy with a cigarette hanging out of the corner of his mouth just came out on a ladder when the clock strikes zero and cut the cable holding it up with a pair of bolt cutters...and it plummeted to the ground at 180 mph...and it made that whistling noise that Wile E. Coyote makes when he falls off a cliff after being chased by the Roadrunner...and just before the ball crashed into a section roped off as special seating for now bug-eyed members of the U.S. Congress, some dude yells "PULL" and a bunch of gun-toting NRA Members blasted it to smithereens to save the day! Scared halfway intelligent, the Congressmen would run as fast as they could to Washington, agree on a Fiscal Cliff solution, pass it through the House and the Senate within 11 minutes, along with a rider to protect the 2nd Amendment...and it would all be done before Fergie introduced the next performer on the West Coast. Yeah. That would be a Rockin New Year's Eve. But instead, we'll see Jenny McCarthy slobber on some random dude in the crowd, Ryan Seacrest get confetti stuck in his hair gel, and you and me will have higher payroll tax deductions on Friday.

Happy New Year, my Fishin.com brothers and sisters!

I heard there were legal pot partys in several states, i generally research this stuff, but didn't, did the ball fall or float away?
