It isn't really New Years. ;-) New Years begins when Spring begins. See my other thread on the subject.

Aside from that, if we're going to have a new god, Mrzzy, I have some possible nominations:

1. Liv Tyler
2. Mary Chapin Carpenter
3. the Great Dachshund

Okay, those were in jest. ;-)

How about instead:

- Mother Nature (in all her majesty and power)

And New Year's resolutions:

I will be kind.
I will practice moderation.
I will not make judgement on the essential worth of others. (but I do reserve the right to judge their behaviour on occasion)
