Default Hmm...the balls have it....

Heya folks..

I am here, making my "spread" for NYE..and what do I notice? That
almost everything I am making is shaped into balls.....

From Julia Child and More Company: Sausage Balls in Sweet and Sour
sauce.

From Cooking with Mr Latte: Roquerfort balls..a la Julia Child

From Anne Willan: Parmesan Cheese Balls.

Makes you wonder how many cocktail foods/etc are shaped into balls?

Just struck by this...

Well, and what drops over Times Square at the stroke of midnight on New
Years Eve?

Oh, and this year it's different.

<q>

A century ago, the tradition began with a 700-pound ball of wood and iron,
lit with 100 25-watt incandescent bulbs. This year's event featured an
energy-efficient sphere clad in Waterford crystals, with 9,576
light-emitting diodes that generated a kaleidoscope of colors.

Officials said the energy-efficient bulbs used about the same amount of
electricity as 10 toasters.

The orb/sphere is universal by default... in fact straight lines are
indicative of insanity.
