Some joint counseling might be helpful. I recommend it. It seems as though advertisers and the media are jumping on the bandwagon, celebrating this year as the start of the 21st century and the third millennium when it won't actually happen until 2001. Therefore, each century ends in the year zero, as in 2000, and the new one starts with the year one, as in 2001. I see no reason to celebrate anything a year in advance.
Some people are happy to have any excuse for a party.
Folks, the new century and the new millennium begin on Jan. 1, 2001. The worldwide extravaganza this past New Year's Eve was only a warm-up. The real celebration is yet to come.
