Welcome to the World of Tomorrow!

Well, that's got the holiday season over with, and can I be the first to say "good riddance to bad rubbish". Don't think I'm being a misery guts about it either, I can and do enjoy Christmas and New Year as much as the next man, but things this year have been pretty bad around here. Again I'm not gonna go into the how, what,when, where or why, just take my word for it, okay?
Anyhow, all that said, welcome to 2006. What do you think of it so far? Yeah, me too... they just don't seem to put the effort into New Years like they used to do they? I mean this is just sequel making at its most cynical and lazy, the only thing they've changed is the number on the box.
Okay, I am however gonna make something of a concerted effort to keep up to date with my blogging again, not that it actually makes a blind bit of difference to anybody in the world except me, cos nobody else reads it. To this I say "Oh" in a rather glum way, and then hastily remind myself that I write primarily to please myself anyway... yeah, you keep on believing that baby, you keep right on believing that.
So, I was updating my calendar as I do, transfering all the important dates from the old one to the new, and I came across this one weird notation. ALI. It's been written in small letters in the corner of some dates, just occuring a couple of times throughout the year and I have no idea what it means... I don't even KNOW anybody called Alison, or Ali or anything even a bit like that. Weird, huh? I realise I could probably quite easily find out what this bizarre notation means (just by looking up one of the relevant dates in my blog) but I'm fairly certain that it'd be something disappointingly dull, so I'm content to leave it a mystery.
Three years ago today I was in the midst of what seemed an interminable discussion with my wife of the time, little realising that in just twenty four short hours, the discussion, along with my marriage, would finally be over. Which is a roundabout way of saying that tomorrow is my Third Independance Day!!!!!! Woohoo!!!!
Okay, that'll do for now, there's still a ton of things that need to be tidied up around here and they ain't getting done with me sitting on my arse like this, although I doubt they're gonna be getting done any other way either...

p.s. i got a riddle for you. "An explorer was captured by a tribe whose chief decided that the man should die. The chief was a very logical man and gave the explorer a choice. The explorer was to make a single statement. If it was true, he would be thrown off a high cliff; if it was false, he would be eaten by lions. What should the explorer do?"
