2008 hasn't been a great year for many reasons. Our economic crisis has enveloped the world, the horrible series of terror attacks on India took the lives of many innocent civilians and the crisis in the afghanistan-pakistan region has continued to get worse. Still, there have been good things this year. The US turned over a new leaf by electing a non-brain dead president and hopefully his policies will help to reverse the crisis. I'd say 2009 has a potential to be really good or really bad. Here's to hoping it will be a safe and successful 2009 for all of us.
