2008 is the Year of the Sell Out.

We're two days into 2008, and I firmly believe we've finally encountered the Year of the Sell Out.

First, it's a leap year. That's another whole day that the the Bush Administration gets to screw all of us over (Editor's note: Don't be confused. The Scientist likes G.W. Bush, but he hates the Administration. I think Bush would be fun to play Mario Party with). It's official, 2008 has sold us out people.

Kill you leap year!

Obviously, the staff here at Dr. Yeti saw this trend coming and decided to sell out our millions and millions of fans by not posting anything for weeks. We can't help it that we're so trendy, but we do apologize.

Who else has sold us out? Obviously, the Yeti. That furry mofo decided he was going to celebrate New Year's Eve in the deep south of Virginia instead of the glorious halls of Chateau d'Brown in Greencastle. It's not a party at Brownie's house without the Yeti there declaring shenanigans and drinking to excess. Amazingly, one of the Brothers Brown also sold us out at the party. KB had to leave both early and sober so he could get to work at Target the next morning at 6 AM. The only potential good that can come from this "work before bros" slight is if the Brothers Brown are going to use their influence to take down Target, Inc. from the inside.

My advice, sell your stock now.

I'm sure that plenty of my relatives sold me out this fine holiday season too, but I'd like to publicly castrate that one that I'll call Gordo. He was supposed to hook me up with some family tree information that he learned in Scotland. As an amateur genealogist, I was pretty excited. It didn't last long though; all of the info Gordo gave me was stuff that I already knew and had nothing to do with Scotland. He seems to be keeping the good stuff to himself. If he doesn't shape up, I'll have to head butt his branch squaw off the family tree.

What about you? Who sold you out in 2008? Who do you plan to sell out?
