2005 Round-Up: Happy New Year From The Mighty J.E.I.

The ball is ready to drop, the calendar page is ready to be torn, and Regis and Dick are ready to go wrinkled mano a mano.

Hunkered down here in the depths of the J.E.I. compound, we can think of no better way to ring in the new year than basking in the glory of our previous accomplishments. From our spectacular mid-April launch, to our inexplicable Autumn slump, The Journal of Ephemeral Inspiration made 2005 our bitch, raking in eager readermonkeys like Nader snatched disillusioned Democrats.

So catch up on what you missed, and look for our continuing supernova of cruel mockery in '06.
