The Countdown

[Haruki-kun]

I just woke up here, it's December 31, 2007, 8:10 AM. And I woke up in time to see the New Year Fireworks in Australia.

I live in the west, so in theory I'm one of the last people to see it.

This is the Countdown Thread! Simply Post here when you're already in 2008!

~8:10 AM

[Felixaar]

Am as of now! And my first official action of the new year is Goodnight Everybody, I'm going to bed before I pass out!

Happy New Year, Y'all!

[Artemician]

As of 15 minutes ago, it is 2008. Maybe a tad earlier than for most of you folks, but hey.

Happy new year peoples!

(Sorry if I'm not too lucid at the moment. Partied too hard)

[Telonius]

Not 2008 yet, but I intend to celebrate the new year in traditional dwarven fasion (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0316.html).

[Omicroncubed]

It has been made clear that precicely 18 minutes ago it has been the year 2008 here in Finland

Happy new year!

Hyvää uutta vuotta! (That's a Finnish lesson for all of you) :smallbiggrin:

[The_Chilli_God]

Oh, bugger.

If I saw this thread earlier, I could have told you that 2008 began for me exactly 11 hours and 25 minutes ago.

You're one of the last? I'm one of the first. :smalltongue:

Happy New Year.

[Mc. Lovin']

It's like looking at posts in the future (past) when I see you guys :smallbiggrin:

Bam. 2008 hits the UK (and other GMT places) Happy new Year :smallsmile:

Three and a half hours past, but I didn't make it home sooner.

Happy New Year, everyone, and may it be a good year indeed for all of us! :smallsmile:

As of the typing of this post, it is 12:47 AM here in scenic Saskatoowan, future birthplace of Luke Skywalker.

And all thanks to the a rousing rendition of John McClane's original "Let's Shoot Terrorists, Hurrah" sung in DVD.

12:51 here in scenic Alberta (where it's so cold I can't go watch the fireworks). :smallannoyed:

Also in Alberta! :smallsmile:

Not too cold for me. However, I am too drunk to go anywhere. Which is kinda why it does not feel as cold :smallbiggrin:

Anyway, happy 2008 to everyone! *opens second bottle of wine*

EDIT: tomorrow I'll feel so hurt :smalleek:

[Moff Chumley]

Happy 2008, world. Yay for even numbers.

Woohoo! Does making glad that 2008 is divisible by 8 make me officially a nerd?
