Happy New Year! You probably woke up this morning (or afternoon) with a headache from too much champagne, or maybe you did the mom and dad-style New Year’s Eve, where you tried to watch the ball drop at home on TV, but fell asleep before it happened. Either way, let’s hope for a fun and prosperous 2010. Here’s a way to get it started off right:

Overheard of the Week

On 14th Street in Columbia Heights this afternoon:

Woman yells across the street to a man she seems to know: “Happy New Year!”
Man: “Whatever, muthafucka!”

After the jump, schooling, race relations, and gym etiquette.
