So long 2011...

Well, 2011 has come and passed. It has been a while since I blogged anything. December has been a bit of a hectic month for me. But now I look forward to a brand spanking new year in 2012 that should be full of excitement and opportunity.

Wishing you and your families a safe and exciting New Year's Eve!

One last song for you in 2011. Enjoy Major Tom (Coming Home) by Shiny Toy Guns:

Major Tom (Coming Home) by Shiny Toy Guns

Standing there alone
The ship is waiting
All systems are go
"Are you sure?"
Control is not convinced
But the computer
Has the evidence
No need to abort
The countdown starts

Watching in a trance
The crew is certain
Nothing left to chance,
All is working
Trying to relax
Up in the capsule
"Send me up a drink."
Jokes Major Tom
The count goes on 

Four
Three
Two
One 

Earth below us
Drifting, falling
Floating weightless
Calling, calling 

Second stage is cut
We're now in orbit
Stabilizers up
Running perfect
Starting to collect
Requested data
"What will it affect
When all is done?"
Thinks Major Tom 

Back at ground control
There is a problem
"Go to rockets full."
Not responding
"Hello Major Tom.
Are you receiving?
Turn your thrusters on.
We're standing by."
There's no reply 

Four
Three
Two
One 

Earth below us
Drifting, falling
Floating weightless
Calling, calling 

Across the stratosphere
A final message:
"Give my wife my love."
Then nothing...

Far beneath the ship
The world is mourning
They don't realize
He's alive
No one understands
But Major Tom sees.
"Now the land commands
this is my home
I'm coming home." 

Earth below us
Drifting, falling
Floating weightless
Calling home

Earth below us
Drifting, falling
Floating weightless
Calling home

Earth below us
Drifting, falling
Floating weightless
Calling, coming home
