Thread: Thoughts about 2016?

How would you rate 2016? This is a thread for your thoughts and a sentence from Paul Kevin.

There is a prediction thread that I think Tito started and I can not find it.

That would be good to reflect on that thread.

Good year for me. In my fitness journal (not diary) I am fitter than this time last year and getting faster times doing my 12khm. I am happy.

Just another 365 days for me

Batman in the WM

The year we said goodbye to The Greatest.

The early part of the year was intense with the famous deaths. Bowie, Rickman, Prince, and also Paul Daniels who was of course really big in his day. Of course Ali too. I guess with Ali, you could see it happening, but those other deaths really were out of the blue and just shocking.

It has been a year of political rebellion, but all we got was more of the same. Trump is appointing cronies and wackjobs. Brexit is heading nowhere. People need to wake up to true rebellion and that means someone with ideas, vision and people UNITING to get the job done. The common enemy is an obvious one, now get ye together and fight it.

Jarvis Cocker once sang 'I am not Jesus, though I have the same initials. I am the man who stays home and does the dishes'. He was documenting mid life crisis and breakdown and 2016 has been some of that for me too. I don't have the same initials as Jesus, but Walrus does. I think I have been put on a cross though and as always I have the scars to prove it. Are you for real? Then prove it, ye heathen.

A strange year 2016. Let's hope the next one is a little bit warmer.

Seen some good Fights but on a personal level it's been SHIT.

For me 2016 was a vacuumless scheme

Brexit and Cameron/Osborne resigning was beautiful.

Trump winning was a shocker.

Leicester winning the league amazing.

Iceland beating England was a joke.

Cleveland went full circle.




Cavaliers win NBA championship for first time ever.... ending Cleveland's very long sports championship drought.

Indians go to extra innings before losing Game 7 of the World Series to the Chicago Cubs.

Browns go 0-14, threatening to go winless, before finally beating the (must be embarrassed) San Diego Chargers this weekend.
