The year is drawing to a close and as always, for its final week the world is a swirl of lights and music and food. Everything is beautiful; everything is just as I would have it. This holiday is really illuminating what has been an unforgettable, dream-worthy year. Until now, anyone who asked has heard me answer that 1979 was the best year of my life. No longer true; the best year of my life has been, without a doubt, 2007. I have to go now and enjoy the rest of it.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, everybody.
