Happy, blessed and prosperous New Year to all friends, family, listeners, and snark-o-maniacs!

I have in my possession a copy of the latest edition of the St. Michael Hymnal, and you're going to hear a review of it right here on iSNARK!
Also, we hear from technologically created Christus Vincit and iSNARK! guests past and present as to how they celebrated the New Year.

You'll hear from Basso Profundo, the Singing Fish, Fr. Jud McFry, The Bitmap, Papa Joe Ratzi, Frank A. Rinze, and of course, Shamus O'Reilly! You'll also hear how I celebrated, New Year's Rockin' Eve, and certain disposable drinking cups.

Also:
Two instances of Don't Do This at Church, and the usual commercials, scattered within.
In What We Have Done, and in What We're Going to Do: What we did for the Solemnity of Mary, Mother of God, and what we're doing for the First Friday (January 6, the optional memorial of Blessed Andre Bessette) and the Epiphany.
The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly: Christmas Carols Edition, brought to you by Crack
