Those of you who were raised as Catholics know there is a special deal and an insiders plan to get to heaven. You need to observe the first Friday of each month for 9 months straight, go to mass, receive Communion and you will assure yourself a place in heaven. Good deal.
Today is the last Friday of 2012 and I for one can't wait until this year is over.
While I did retire this year and was totally touched by all the best wishes and special events surrounding my hanging up the chalk and eraser, and we did reelect Barack, and my granddaughter celebrated her third birthday and is simply a joy, and my wife continues to flourish after very extensive surgery, and we thoroughly enjoyed the AC my wife installed for hot summer days, and I am learning to speak Italian you might wonder why so anxious for the year o end.
Well there was the storm of the century, and the school massacre in Newtown. There is also a paralysis in the country as the politicians cannot agree to anything and they hold us hostage as we contemplate going over the financial cliff.
If only the slate was wiped clean each December 31 and a new year started with no residual effects from the year before.
Maybe Mitt's people were right and we could all avail ourselves of an etch-a- sketch experience.
