-Whassup!
Hope you had a fantastic climax to the year 2000.
Looking back we certainly had a great year! Wait......I�m just receiving news that a late result is in from across the state which says we didn�t have such a good year! Hold on! a reverse ruling states that on appeal that ruling was appealed and has been overturned in favour of a favourable year-end. But further judgment has rejected the objection and judges are inclined to define, decline, redefine and realigne the rethink as some thoughts had coffee stains on them. Who�d have thunk it. Oh to be a lawyer.
Well I do know we enjoyed the year and turning the corner of a new century.

Last January the world waited for the Y2 bug to bring us to a standstill, the impending disaster hasn�t caught up with us yet. Florida stole must of the headlines as we see it. Driving people crazy over Elian Gonzalez, should he be allowed to return to Cuba with his Dad, or make his friends and relatives in Miami TV stars. Lawyers queued to offer their services and handkerchiefs.
Some even spoke a little English; well American English, well ..............

The Internet has taken hold of everybody's lives as you can attest to if you�re reading this. Hackers caused e-businesses mayhem but then they caught on and messed up themselves. Survival of the freest.
The love bug virus made people realise not all emails are genuine and spam isn�t just a spicy pork meat.

Florida passes a law, changing from using the electric chair to lethal injection. But lawyers ran out of serum before they finished counting the votes.

Gas prices soared to record heights even in Palm Beach FL. At home, England, the petrol stations ran dry. The only dry thing all year.
Firestone Tyres argument proved to be full of psi. So no one was going very far.

The war on hand guns shoots blanks. All Americans it seems, want the right to be shot at, especially lawyers in Palm Beach.

Kathy Lee Gifford leaves Regis Philbin. She becomes extinct, should have moved to Palm Beach. He goes on to capture the world with the catchy little phrase, �Is that your final answer?� He also discovers The Baha Men whose chorus, �Who let the Dogs Out?� gets everyone barking. People in Palm Beach have been quoted as barking mad.

The Queen Mum turned 100 and received a telegram from The Queen. Prince Edward marries Sophie Rees Jones and was instantly compared to Di,  thoughts go out to The Boys, no one seems interested in Charlie anymore.

Sir Stanley Matthews dies, we continue to suffer with American Football played in the hand not foot? We watched The Atlanta Braves win at Turner Field. Wimbledon The Williams sisters thrashed it out in the tennis final. Formula 1 Michael Schumaker races away with the title.
Tiger Woods, from Florida, were he ever at home, wins everything golf can putt before him. Comes from playing on a level playing field I suppose?
But did he vote, or just intend to vote. Did he dimple his chad or leave it pregnant? we will never know. Payne Stewart shocking plane crash shocked us.

While the West burns, The East coast blow winds to fan the flames keeping Florida dry and sunny for all the lawyers.
Following endless negotiations lawyers get it right and North and South Korea sign a declaration that they will visit Palm Beach and assist with ballot counting. Mozambique floods. Russian Sub is submerged.
Harry Potter sold billions of his books, no surprise then that the Hooked On Phonics Ad is permanently on our TV screen. A lawsuit must be pending to have a cut of the profits.
The Clintons....Bill is said to dislike his running mate Al Gore, but he�s leaving anyway so what does he care. Al Gore sees Bill as a thorn in his campaign.
Hillary fed up with politics buys a house in New York and runs and wins as .....
this beats electing a dead man, Palm Beach are furious they didn�t think of that first.  It�s only a small house because they�ve just bought a house in Washington DC or maybe it�s so they can get some quality time apart.

The naked truth, Richard Hatch wins Survivor, and moves to Palm Beach?
The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, The Late Show with David Letterman, Late Night with Conan O�Brien, Oprah Winfrey, Regis, Rosie O'Donnell couldn�t wait to give him exposure. The Today Show are still reeling from the mob from Palm Beach who attack Al Roker for... No Reason.
The Olympics in Australia resulted in a lawsuit as no one from Palm Beach won anything.
As always drug use smeared it�s ugly head, but Florida lawyers have vowed to collect all the syringes, needed for lethal injections.
Somehow Palm Beach residents managed to meddle, raising the height of the woman�s gymnastics vault.
France is stampeded by Mad Cow disease; herds and stocks will surely fall.
In space Palm Beachers Endeavour to cause havoc.
In Scotland Madonna weds. How will Britney Spears respond?
The Quarter coin depicting the states was launched. Starting with Delaware and I think we�re up to Virginia now. The $1 coin was reintroduced, and still no one wants it.
Oh yeah we all got a year older.

We were at Paradise as midnight struck and Big Ben chimed 5 hours earlier.

                    Love to Y�all from Ali & Mike.
