And there was much rejoicing

Dave Barry's 2009 Year In Review is out. I haven't read it yet myself but I can tell you right now to drop whatever you're doing and go read it. Unless what you're doing is, tossing up a quick blog post to announce the Annual Return of the Humor Messiah.

Off to find out for myself what happened in 2009.

UPDATE: As expected, laughed until I cried at multiple points. Let's just say that the idiom "hiking the Appalachian Trail" is forever altered for yours truly.
