My sister's having one in Feb but I think they're more scared than anything else at the moment. > To all of you, thank you for being a part of the PHP project, and > many of you professional and personal parts of my life.

Personally I have a lot of change planned for 2009 so I already know it's gonna be turbulent and difficult, but nothing worthwhile comes easy and I know it's gonna be worth it! Anyone got an interesting resolution beyond the usual drinking/smoking/eating less? I intend to spend less non-work hours sat in front of a computer and blog/twitter more. Those two are probably mutually exclusive but I'm giving it a shot ;-) Happy new year all. -Stuart -- http://stut.net/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
