		<description><![CDATA[<p>....don't let the door hit you on the ass on your way out.</p>

<p>Well, another year has come and gone. 2007 was kind of a mixed bag: I traveled a lot more for work, got <a href="http://www.mrbalihai.com/goof/2007/07/malaiseia.html">violently ill in Malaysia</a>, and <a href="http://www.mrbalihai.com/goof/2007/05/happy_trailers.html">pleasantly tipsy</a> in London, dumped a couple of so-called friends, made some new ones, Mrs. BH finally got a job as a liberrian, then lost the hearing in her right ear from a virus, I struggled with health problems too, we sent our oldest off to college, and we got a pretty cool <a href="http://www.mrbalihai.com/goof/2007/09/i_made_you_a_mai_tai_but_i_dri.html">new kittycat</a>.</p>

<p>On the blogging side, things were up and down as well. On the good side, I was published in Mark Frauenfelder's book <a href="http://www.mrbalihai.com/goof/2007/06/mark_rules_the_web_and_i_helpe.html">Rule the Web</a>, and contributed to Beachbum Berry's new book, <a href="http://www.mrbalihai.com/goof/2007/07/sippin_safari_and_teetotalin_t.html">Sippin' Safari</a>. I became a <a href="http://easydreamer.blogspot.com/">PCL</a> contributor. I saw my readership reach an all-time high, then watched it crash and burn as a result of my neglect due to boredom and overwork. In the latter half of the year, I spent most of my time exercising the trivia center of my brain on <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/90726136@N00/">Flickr</a> playing around in the <a href="http://www.flickr.com/groups/62585667@N00/">Name That Film</a> and <a href="http://www.flickr.com/groups/namethatshow/">Name That Show</a> pools.</p>

<p>So what's in store for 2008? Well, I don't really believe in resolutions, but I've already taken steps to try and get healthier and shed a few pounds. I'll definitely be on the road again soon. I leave for Melbourne, Australia in a week, then I'll be back in London (and possibly take a side jaunt to Mallorca) in February. </p>

<p>I'm sure I'll be running hot and cold on the blogging thing like I always do, but I'm probably too much of a showoff to quit entirely. As always, thanks to all the folks who've supported and linked to me over the years. </p>

<p>See you in the funny pages... </p>]]></description>
