Sounds like the rundown from CNN. I probably don't keep up with the news like I should.

Happy New Year!

Arlee - I watched some of Anderson Cooper and Kathy Griffin, but I didn't see the official CNN rundown. I am, however, a news junkie. I'm cutting way down on that in 2011. It will be difficult, but I've been practicing and made some progress. Happy New Year!

Teresa - Thanks :) And the same to you.
Helen Ginger saidā€¦
Definitely the rescued miners. That was captivating and exhilarating. Was there a Celebrity of the Month? Who was December? Santa?

Happy New Year to you and yours!
Carol Kilgore saidā€¦
Helen - Santa wins! Hope your 2011 is fantastic.
notesfromnadir saidā€¦
Good list. But don't forget the Kindle! LOL
Carol Kilgore saidā€¦
Lisa - I didn't forget, but it wasn't new this year, so I didn't include it. They might have upgraded, but it's been around a year or more now, I think.

Hope you have a wonderful 2011.
Patricia Stoltey saidā€¦
One of the top ten things in my 2010 was meeting a wonderful new group of bloggers who bring joy to my life. May we all find even more joy in 2011.

I like that a lot of politicians are being thrown out of office. Hopefully we'll see more in 2012. Dumbocrats and Repulsicans alike.
Carol Kilgore saidā€¦
Patricia - I TOTALLY agree!

Stephen - We need to work for the good of our country, not the good of the politicians.

Happy New Year!

I know this all happened recently, but it seems like the distant past--I always get that way after New Year.
