FTE NEW YEAR COUNTDOWN

This was a lot of fun one year on another forum I visit, especially if you are online right around the time the new year hits. I may not be able to participate much actually.

The rule(s):

1. Every post must have the countdown to midnight visible within the post.

2. Follow rule #1 on every post.



....talk about whatever you want, or don't talk and just post the time remaining, just make sure and follow the rules.....

be creative, artistic, or whatever, just make sure that you follow the rule.

It can get very hectic right around the time midnight hits with everyone posting at the same time. Makes a good place to stop in and wish Happy New Year.

Pick your time zone and run with it!!!

Happy New Year FTE, I'm glad I found this site, it has been a very informative, helpful, and a bit of fun kind of place!!

38 hours 18 mins........

tricky!!!......a little twist to it will work.

stu, same here as far as not leaving the house. We have some neighbors about 200 yards away out here in the sticks where I live that are going to come over and let the kids all play together. Should be fun.

Steve, everyone that you help bring in the New Year before yourself has to stay up and help you ring in the New Year as well, right?

you have a big advantage though, you can pick any other time zone and celebrate it here with them.....just pick the Eastern and you can celebrate and still get to bed very early!!
