The first post of the year 2008!

Celebrating the new year in style, pink flip flops and all.

Unfortunately, I have nothing great, nor funny to share, as a healthy dose of alcohol and a general sense of “I’ve been through this shit before” hangs over me like the reruns of XENA on Fiji TV.

However, I am neither dead nor cripple (my kidney would cry otherwise) and so it is with much relish and delight that Paradise Not Found: Abort, Retry, Fail? welcomes you all to a new year, the year 2008.

New Year Resolutions anyone? I have a few, one of them being of course dedicated to the continued running of this lovely catalog of all things Fijian, Crazy and anything remotely related i.e. this blog. If you don’t have anything in mind at the moment, fear not, you’re not alone. Even the big names in Fiji’s political scenes are coming up empty on a desire for resolutions and changes, such as Felix Anthony, who says, “I don’t have any new years resolution but I’ll continue doing what I have been doing.” (Mind you, the original sentence from the Fiji Times Website had ‘…continue doing but I have been doing’…)

Most publish houses use this opportunity to take a look back at the year 2007, but since this blog’s ‘year’ so to speak is in a few weeks time, I’ll hold that particular post back till the appropriate time.

Otherwise, its just another day in paradise folks. Continue on your merry way please.

And stay away from knives.

What’s your new year’s resolution?

PS: With the new year, a new banner is needed. 2 Fools waiting on the new year, party prepared and primed up. A big thanks to Awesome Cake for the cartoon. Give him some love folks, by dropping by his blog.

And send him some cake.

And don’t forget to CC me as well
