Edith Lovejoy Pierce:

We will open the book. Its pages are blank. We are going to put words on them ourselves. The book is called "Opportunity" and its first chapter is New Year's Day.

Irish toast:

In the New Year, may your right hand always be stretched out in friendship, never in want.
Happy New Years Guru, Ms.Sue, Writeacher and everyone else on Jiskha...let's make this a great year!! =)

Happy New Year to everybody.

Ms Sue, the Irish toast I recall is
"May you be in Heaven a half an hour before the Devil knows you're dead."
I think the Irish must have a lot of toasts. I'll drink to that! <g>
