New Yorkers should get their confetti personalized -Impeach Bush

Fling your face on New Year's
Just in time for New Year's Eve, personalized confetti is all the rage, newspaper report says.
December 30, 2005: 8:18 AM EST

NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) - Would you pay more to sprinkle Times Square with pictures of yourself and your family on New Year's Eve?

Confetti makers are banking on it. According to a report in USA Today, confetti makers -- faced with flattening sales since the Sept. 11 attacks -- are providing consumers with the chance to ring in the new year (or any other special occasion) with fancier, designer confetti at double the cost of the standard tissue-paper products.

And party-happy consumers are willing to pay the big bucks for a little extra personalization.

Wouldn't it be great to see Dick Clark or any celeb announcer wearing confetti in Times Square saying Impeach Bush.

1. I will be there in spirit
and give them a hearty, har, har. I grew up within walking distance of Times Square and have lived many decades a very short commute to it, but have NEVER been to Times Square on New Year's in my entire half century.

I guess I should go sometime before I die? :toast:
