My laptop’s Christmas present from me was an impolite wine spillage on the keyboard resulting in a tedious copy and paste requirement job for some letters of the alphabet. So I will keep this in a brief list format. After this, I’m done with 2007 and making lists for another year. Thanks to all the readers and those who left comments, downloaded the podcast and got into the music. 2008 is going to be an interesting year….
