Well what a year that was.
Given that the team at Fridgejet expanded by two, implemented six new monthly guest columnists, surpassed 50,000 friendly visits, survived multiple interviews, gained readership worldwide (including two regular readers from Ethiopia, shout out!), showed the fans how wacky Wongo is, spotted itself on nine new mailing lists, supported over 30 events, made and lost a promotional video, signed a full time graphic designer, sought out a full time useless fool, partied alongside FUKKK OFFF and Pase Rock, received over 500 track submissions and even fully exposed Adam Bozzetto’s ping pong addiction to the world – you can forgive us that this end of year wrap up is a tad late. In all honesty, perhaps we can push the eight ball and ask forgiveness for the whole month of December, ‘twas the season to be jolly.
Let’s keep in the theme of celebration though. New years was rocking for the whole crew and the hangover, while not quite rivaling a tiger in the bathroom and additional children, was quite rugged. With that behind us, we can kick into the new year and prove we’ve got bigger and better things to prove!
To round out this post we have to
thank you, the people. Not just for getting this far through a crappy spiel, but for finding your way onto this site in the first place. Over 8,000 of you kind people browse the contents of the fridge on a monthly basis, a statistic we thank you all for. Without your support, writing would be boring. We also have to thank our monthly writers for their continued support, and don’t worry, we realise those guys and girls are the ones you fans love hearing from! Suitably, a few of them have written a short ‘whatever the fuck they want’ to round out 2009 and/or bring on 2010!
ADAM BOZZETTO - 'Ping Pong and AIM Rocks!' *
WONGO - "I know my posts aren't really worth anyone's time but thanx for taking the time to even read this. This year has been full of spiritual becoming's and mindful blessings. Today we take this chance to look back on what made us, US in 2009. US meaning United States, as I now think Australia is a United State of Australia. We are now one. So lets bring on 2010 and hope to change our name to Ethiopia so we can change our name to USE, as there's a large amount of Australians that like to USE things we shouldn't. LETS DO IT!"
MOE - sleepless nights. square eyes. melted dodo brains. hot debates. deaf sound. orchestra mixtapes. time wasting. man boobs. fridgejet. win.
