Calling out to all locals!
We all know NYE in this town is fairly average, so who has some awesome ideas? Anything good on this year for a change? Any quirky ideas for something cool to do?

Although, the thought suddenly occurs to me that a gathering that consists almost entirely of white-coated, horn-rimmed, brylcreemed, high-waisted, squeakey-voiced internet-obsessed nerds (including me of course, but obviously not including Captain RAAF) might not be such a problem after all. 🙂
Pretty sure there would be fights over Cars vs. Cyclists to extremes the Police have never seen before. Everyone in Mooseheads would bow when we entered a room and people would whisper our names in fright.

Interesting, but very wrong stereotype
Indeed – I don’t have a squeaky voice.
I’ll be in bed reading a book. I’ve given up on trying to sleep through the fireworks as I’m too close to Civic and if the fireworks don’t wake me, the dog will. I recommend this activity…although my definition of “awesome” may differ from yours.
The Polish Club is having a ball – could be a laugh.

I’d imagine a gathering of the RiotACT frequenters to be oppressed public servants, actually.
I commented to my SO this evening that I wasn’t keen on doing NYE this year unless it was something new and exciting. Usually it’s just our male friends over at our house getting embarrassingly drunk while I go read in the bedroom after the first five hours. Please, RiotACT, provide a better alternative!
