Your New Year's Eve Sift

The last night of 2011 is upon us. Whatever you're doing, stay safe so that you'll be able to spend 2012 with the rest of us. Here's your New Year's Eve evening Sift.

A- New Year's sentiments from South Florida Lawyers, Go Hydrology!, Justice Building Blog, and Wide Lawns and Narrow Minds.

B- Bark Bark Woof Woof makes a personal assessment of 2011 and mentions SFDB so...you know.

C- Coconut Grove Grapevine posts some photos from today's King Mango Strut.

After the Strut, people hung out around the Grove and enjoyed themselves. I stuck around the end of Commodore Plaza with my friends at LoKal, the new burger place, and The Loft, next door, where Yvonne and Michael always treat us like family. I was exhausted and I didn't even march or strut. I hung out there for a long time enjoying seeing all the people who were enjoying the Grove. If only it could be like that all the time around here! Restaurants and bars were packed from one end of the village to the other.

D- Valentine's Day paraphernalia is already dominating the store shelves, according to Some Blogging Guy.

E- The305.Com continues with his 2011 Best Of selections including Beached Miami as "Website of the Year."

Either way, BeachedMiami is a mix of local music, local politics, funny “Jay Leno styled Jay Walking” type videos and tons of original content and original commentary. You can truly see quality in their content and the hard work they put into creating it. You have to be blind to not see that they’ve gone the extra mile to give a good reporting of South Florida current events.

F- Oh boy. The Reid Blog tells us about another Republican getting weepy on camera. These guys cry more than a roomful of 2-year-olds whose toys have been taken away from them.
