The rescued miners was a miracle.
And yes! The iPad makes #4.
Yay for the miners!!! That was a most awesome news day.

One of my top 10 things about this year was meeting all of you!

Happy New Year!

Ditto on the Rescued Miners. That was great to watch.

Neat list. Brings lots of memories to mind.

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 said…
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 said…
Helen - Santa wins! Hope your 2011 is fantastic.
notesfromnadir said…
Good list. But don't forget the Kindle! LOL
Carol Kilgore said…
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.
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 said…
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.
