Mom's going around replacing all the 2002 calendars with the 2003 calendars she picked up. There are calendars from 99 Ranch Market, Oakland Market in Chinatown, China Airlines (which she doesn't even fly anymore), her old bank, plus one from her friend's daughter's bank in LA. Got a bigger kick out of the New Year celebration in Animal Crossing than the old Dick Clark on TV. Now there are the endless stream of football games on TV, although it was better when the four major bowls were all on New Year's Day instead of dragging out over the week, and Keith Jackson should be doing the Rose Bowl. There's always the Iron Chef marathon on Food TV, or special New Year Japanese variety shows on KTSF. Yes, this day is all about passive entertainment.
