A new(er) Year

Well, 2008 has finally come. There aren't a lot of things we can truly count on: (e.g. weather staying consistent, Summer starting in February, or even the local newspaper's reporting/writing). But there are several things you can count on: my graduation from purgatory, about 1.3 million campaign ads about the Republicans sticking it to the average American, it being the local NFL team's "year," and lastly, humor and positive self-esteem growth for most of Americans from . . . something. So, my question to you all is: What are some things you can count on? They can range from serious to the not-so-serious. Please, enlighten us all.
