HAPPY NEW YEAR BAGWINE READERS!!Well, over the last few days I have posted (with the exception of October) my favorite entry from each month of 2007.
The last one would be my favorite from December. It is a history lesson on the customs and origins of Hanukkah. You can read it by clicking: HERE.
With the retrospective out of the way, it is time to move forward into a new year of Bagwine Ruminations. I hope that I continue to provide you with a daily laugh, and visions of me naked while you dream.
Trust me, unlike in real life, I am incredibly sexy when I appear in dreams.
I am very grateful to those of you who read my blog. Your comments are often much funnier than the post, and I will continue to try and respond to each and every one of them.
Everyday I am pleasantly entertained by your smart, thoughtful, and amusing comments. In fact, I am going to begin announcing the Comment of the Week on Saturdays. I will post the comment and link your site on my Saturday post so that my
Here’s a good example of the smart, articulate, and brutally honest comedic responses I have come to expect from you guys….
The first time I began using this particular picture for my Stream of Consciousness Friday entries, Jeff, from A Word In Edgewise, commented in a typically intelligent Bagwine fashion:
"Matt, you look like a big bowl of spilled fuck in that picture!"
Subtle brilliance and great observational skills. Jeff, and all of you guys ROCK!!
With that being said, I would like to wish you a very happy, safe, and fortune-filled 2008. Thanks for all of your help in making Bagwine Ruminations a fun to place to be, and for putting a smile on my face.
I am now off to bust the cherry of my new 3-in-1 Slow Cooker by loading it up with brats and kraut. I'll take pictures.
Cheers!!

Dude! Brats and kraut? I'm sooo coming over! Wait...does vodka go with brats and kraut? Never mind...
(Jeff's comment made me bust out laughing.)
Songbird: You're welcome anytime. And dear, you should know that Vodka goes with anything. Cheers!!
Ummm ... Matt-Man ... if I am already receiving my daily laugh while reading your blog, does that mean visions of you naked while I dream are inevitable??
Dana: Yes. But please, only laugh when you read my blog and not when you dream about me naked. Cheers!!
A comment of the week feature? Brilliant!
I now have to go back and add something else to my New Year's Resolutions. To get at least 3 of those! Okay, two. Hell, one will be fine with me. Maybe an honorable mention.
Jay: Focus...FOCUS my man, and then maybe you can attain such a lofty goal. Cheers!!
Oh long lost brother of Bagwine, I just call 'em like I see 'em.
Even though it scares the crap out of me most days, it's been fun to get a glimps into your twisted mind. It reminds me a lot of looking in a mirror.
Jeff: Twin sons of different mothers. Cheers!!
Comment of the week eh? I don't envy you the selection process. You get some damn snarky stuff here.
Travis: You guys will make it difficult, although quite amusing as well. Cheers!!
So, if you're twisted, what does that say to those of us who visit several times a day?
Thanks Donna, now I feel like a bigger freak than I already am. As you can see, I'm back too!
Jeff is going to be tough to beat. He really has a twisted sense of humor just like you do. That's what I like about the both of you. Brats and kraut with vodka? I'm hitching a ride with Desert Songbird. Have a great day Matt-Man. :)
Songbird: It says that you are just as bad off as a meth addict, but without the fear of arrest. Cheers!!
Jeff: I don't think that's possible. Cheers!!
Sandee: Feel free to tag along. Have a good one and Cheers!!
Brats and Kraut are usually what I eat when I decide that Dean's gonna need a bit of a hot box later that night.
Don't forget to dump some beer in!
108: No beer on this round...And please, keep your hot box recipes off of my site. E-mail them to me instead. Cheers!!
We get beer with the brats and kraut?! I gotta kill HOURS until I get kidlet and can go eat. Now I brat obsessed :P
If that turns you on then you are sicker than I thought and therefore far sexier.
Starr: And they smell sooooooooogood. Cheers!!
108: I knew I could melt your heart. Cheers!!
Leighann: Why does that not surprise me? Cheers!!
Nothing like a brat to soak up the WIR.
Smooch
TB: A Brat!? Try several. Happy New Year, and Cheers!!
Mmmm....brats and kraut!!
When you make chicken soup in that cooker, send some over...I'M DYING!!!! At least I think I'm dying...I'm dripping from every orifice-- and not in a good way!
Metalmom: How can dripping from every orifice be a bad thing? Seriously...Cheers and Get Well!!
I love it that I can still surprise you after all this time! :D
Leighann: I'm sure I have yet to see 1% of your tricks. Boo Yah, and make me your cabana boy. Cheers!!
Brats and Kraut - I can smell the fantastilious dinner already!
Happy New Year, see you in my dreams *g*
Sanni: Would you expect anything different from Bratwurst February? Congrats on Version 2.0.Happy New Year and Cheers!!
Hot Lemon: Ha...That was a good one. Cheers and Happy Nude Year to you too!!
Brats and kraut? I'm calling children's services, Matt-man!
Teach: Happy New Year Teach. Cheers!!
My liver and I miss us some Richards's. It's been way too long...
Happy New Year, Matt.
Happy New Year....
How's that for a brilliant comment?
Huh?? Huh???
WTF you answering every damn comment individually to rack up your numbers? I hear Rachel Ray is also doing a weekly 'comment contest'...I am beginning to believe you and she are having a secret email affair
VINNY THROWS DOWN!
Damn!
I am nearly as speechless as when I was contemplating the Holmesian pigs in a blanket.
Brats & Kraut! Dude, you know how to eat; to hell with your heart and arteries ;)
Happy New Year Matt-Man
Corky: The stuff is liquid heroin. Happy New Year and Cheers!!
Bond: She is ? I didn't know. And whadda ya mean? I always answer each comment, whenever possible. Happy New Year and Cheers!!
Starr: Vinny had to start the year off on a low note didnt he? Cheers!!
Al: Yeah, maybe don't eat as well as I should, but I make up for it by smoking. Happy New Years and Cheers!!
You get sicker every year!
I like that idea tho..about the weekly comment!
Peace
Odat: That was the nicest thing you have ever said to me. Cheers!!
I love that you answer all the comments... your answers are sometimes funnier than the post or the original comments.
If I ever comment something wonderful enough for a comment of the week... could you edit the spelling for me before you post it? I'm handicapped that way.
Marilyn: Thanks!! I prefer incorrect spelling it makes feel right at home.
A most happy of New Year's to you Matt-man. May 2008 be your finest year yet.
Lisa: Thanks Lisa, and same to you. Cheers!!
yeah...the matt and jeff show is a bit frightening....
quite honestly....bagwine ruminations is an addiction...
(you have a PINK couch?)
Kat: Well hopefully I can continue to provide your fix in a good way. No pink couch, those are pink pillows. They have a calming effect on my mind while I sleep. Cheers!!
