Best wishes for the New Year from Ultra Virgo!
How are you saying goodbye to 2008? I've always been partial to pyrotechnics.. But why stop at fireworks?  This year I'll say sayonara to my daruma doll, and toss it in the pyre as we celebrate a cross-cultural New Year's in the Ecuadorian tradition by creating physical effigy of the año viejo (old year).
Hope yours is spectacular!
