Hey guys! What you got planned for New Year celebrations?

Interesting ...  This must be a southern thing.  Up in New England I've never heard of any of the variations mentioned by our southern sly brothers.

We're having King Crab Legs, for taste.

And look at the winters you guys have, ice, no power, etc. 
Just pulling you leg.  We'd gladly switch to lobster if that was available

Yeah, winter sucks.  It was fun for the first 2 storms and nice having a white Christmas but I'm ready for Spring ...

Regarding the lobster - I'm not tired of it.     During the Summer we get lobsters right off the boats in Rhode Island.  3 months until Spring ....

Lobsters been down around 3 bucks a pound, and we get em all year round

Damn my legs are sore.  I started running, was visiting all the SBG Bro's houses and was gonna have a drink with ya all, but hell no one was home anywhere.  Either that you were all sitting in the house laughing your asses off at me because you wuoldnt answer the door.  Oh well...Hope everyone had a nice New Years.

We get em all  year round too, but rarely go to the pier in the winter ...    They don't weigh them when selling off the boat and just estimate size. They were selling 1.5 pounders (or so) this past summer for $6 and I've heard the prices have been dropping.  Hopefully this summer the prices will be even lower ...

I had a flashback to this thread NY Eve, the fish course was lobster--hmmm--then steak then cheese, all w/ appropriate wines of vintage.  NY greeted w/ bubbly.  If 2009 is as good as the dinner, I'm going to be in "high cotton" as they say down here.

Staying home.......too many drunk drivers out and about and law enforcement will be in full force here. One of my neighbors is an Horry County police sergent and while he could not tell me specifics he said there will be alot of suprises for drivers this year..more so than normal.

New years day-Black eye peas, greens, pork chops

Sounds awesome. Around my way, its "Hoppin Johns": Black eyed peas, rice, stewed tomatoes, and ham all mixed together.
