It's the start of a new year and while many of us hope for successes and good things to happen, I got to wondering what cave Space Varmint has been hiding in? With oil prices on the rise again, Israel/Hamas conflict, Russia shutting off natural gas supplies to Europe, global unemployment on the rise, investors getting bilked by the billion$, etc. I expected him to start a thread on Nostradamus' predictions for 2009 or something similar. Where are you, buddy?
