Awesome, Oz! photos and drawings are really helpful, too. I'll let
you know how mine goes if I can get past this hangover to go buy
supplies.

Michi - thanks for the info. I'll see if I can build a bell over my
chopstick! lol

Happy New Year! I was in Sydney for the millenium celebrations - you
guys definitely know how to throw a party!

Well the fireworks were just incredible as usual. I keep wondering how much
longer it can keep getting better? This year I saw pastel colours I've never
seen before in fireworks. On TV they were calling Sydney "The NYE capital of
the World!" - bah! We just have good fireworks and good people.

This year we have a giagantic "disco ball" hanging off the Harbour Bridge
that has Vari-Lites on it - the biggest mirror ball I've ever seen - the
whole city is in party mode right now - tempered with respect for the
Tsunami victims in S.E. Asia.
