HAPPY NEW YEAR, BLOGTOWN! No more champagne, and the fireworks are through. Here we are, me and you, feeling lost and feeling blue. LET'S GO TO PRESS.

GOP speaker John Boehner may be backing "limited" immigration reform. (Maybe his New Year's resolution was to infuriate Tea Baggers?)

Justice Sonia Sotomayor temporarily blocks the health care law requirement which says that religious organizations must provide health insurance that includes birth control.

A nor'easter is scheduled to hit the east coast bringing with it a foot of snow and wind chills in the -10 degree range. On the upside, "nor'easter" is an awesome word.

R.I.P. actor James Avery (AKA Uncle Phil on The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air) who has passed away at the age of 68.

And finally, you know you drank too much on New Years when your eggs start talking to you.
