Every New Year people sing Auld Lang Syne, but few probably don't even really know the words or what they mean. Auld Lang Syne has a Scottish origin and it means the times gone past or the good old days. It's a song about friendship and I'd like to take this occasion to thank the friends that made 2007 a special one. Maybe we'll call it the Buddy Awards, like the Grammy, Emmy and the Dundies from The Office.
