After a break for Christmas, I feel ready to add to the display. And I shall start with...
I bought
this tape at our local Salvation Army Thrift Store in May/June 2012. I was
taking something to them—toys or something, I can’t remember what—and I saw
this video right there on the shelf, while I was in line. As soon as I gave
them my stuff, I snapped up the video and bought it right there. As its name
implies, it’s* a “greatest-hits” compilation of ABC News’ 24-hour coverage of
New Year/New Millennium celebrations worldwide. From Toledo to Tokyo, from
Kansas to Kiribati, this tape has it all, including appearances by Charlotte
Church (who?) and Dame Edna Everage. And, on a more bittersweet note, it
prominently features the late Peter Jennings and Dick Clark...this Happy New Year will be slightly less happy now that he's gone.
