Worst 9 months of my otherwise very normal and happy life :(. I've had a lot of good stuff happen but a crushing 9 months of the year for me...

Was a great year until 11:20ish EST. Drunk bastard hit me, car totaled, guy drove off before I could get info. I spent the turn of the New Year with my fiancee and two cops. Woohoo.

Only thing bad for me was the drought we had here, since my business requires some frequent rainfall....and I was very slow this summer.

It's rocking now, though, so if this keeps up I'll be fine.

Otherwise, 2005 was a very good year.

Yeah it was somewhat crappy. Hopefully 2006 will be better, and so far its already looking up!

eh it was alright.. 2005 started out miserable, got real crappy, and picked up towards the end with me going off to college and all... 2006 got a good start today though :)

2005 was decent. It started off strangely...horrible break-up then a purchase of an upgraded system. Graduating college was awesome but I didn't know what to think of starting to work full-time. :)

I graduated from highschool and started college in 2005, and yet it was still a pretty crappy year.

2005 was on the downside and now already cnn is reporting issues with iran and the russinans and their natural gas issues. looks like more war, so buy stock for companies that make their money from war :(

hmm ....

Got a modest increase in income through a small position change and then an increase in 2005.
Property taxes doubled in 2005, thus nullifying the increased income.

I'd say it was a rather neutral year
