J-J-J-Jimmy & the Jets

So, yesterday Rear Window was on TCM before I went out for New Year's Eve. This got me thinking. Last year, i watched Mr. Smith Goes to Washington before i went out to celebrate the eve. So from now on, every New Year's Eve before I get the party started, I am going to watch at least one Jimmy Stewart movie. Because, hey, what better way to say goodbye to a year than a great Jimmy Stewart movie. Next year I'll aim for The Philadelphia Story, or, The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance. This way Jimmy Stewart can be to New Year's Eve, what Bing Crosby is to Christmas (and every other Holiday, really). It's a simple analogy:

Jimmy Stewart : New Year's Eve :: Bing Crosby : Christmas

I like it. Plus now that its 2010, the year I graduate, I'm looking to start all the tradition I can, because in a few short months, it all changes (which I type as I'm sitting here listing to "O Tannenbaum" by Vince Guaraldi...I'm just not ready to let go of the holidays yet).

Anyway, I hope you had a really nice New Year's. Mine was pretty good. The best part was finding out my friend has an extra seat for the Jets' game Sunday night. I am going to the Jets' game!

Also, I tried two new varieties of Sam Adams: Boston Ale, and Brown Ale. Both were very good. I'm quickly finding out that Sam Adams does not brew a beer that I do not like. Next on the list is Cream Stout, or Imperial White. Probably Cream Stout because I don't have to go as far to get it as the Imperial White.

Have a great New Year's Day, and a great 2010.

peace, love, Jimmy & Jets,
