2008 saw China hosting its' first ever Olympic games, United States elect its' first ever black president. Israelis still fighting Palestinians, and Ben Laden still no where to be found. I'm sure a lot of you also figured that 2009 will not be a glorious year for personal gain and profit. Instead we'll have to work harder than ever before, well, most of us anyway. Whatever it is, 2008 certainly will set its mark in history, it even has one extra second for us to reflect on. A little factoid I heard on the radio - There are many things one second can achieve in this world, in China, 50,053 cigarettes are smoked every second.

Happy New Year Everyone.
