Happy new year Bill!! To you and all of the family! Hope you can do some more videos this year. Miss hearing your snarky commentary. I know life gets busy, but if you have time please post as often as you can. I miss UXWBILL studios fine quality content.
It is so nice to see Bill posting every now and then, He is one of the few left from the olden days of social media and seeing him post is very nice! I get it he is busy in whatever he is doing but still good to see him around every now and then. I been working so much it too me a month just to find this video but still great to see! Excellent video and who cares what the naysayers say about when it is posted,just be glad he didn't disappear like the others who quit social media! Great job Bill!
@@drivedb7 That, and the buttery smooth zoom action... such a special nostalgia. Takes me back to the early days of adiblasi, bbishoppcm, VWestlife etc.
Where I am, it was utter silence at midnight, not even a single firework went off, then 20 minutes later they seemed to remember and then someone let off two of them, gotta love peoples' timing... :P
A belated Happy New Year to you, Bill. I've been watching your videos since I was about 7 or 8 years old, now I'm a 23 year old man! I consider you to be one of the bastions of my childhood when it comes to CZcams, just like BBISHOPPCM and VWestlife.
Happy New Year to All, maybe watching this when I should watch it and not for the first time in the middle of August things will go a little more right this year.
Bill I was worried for a minute that you were not going to get you video uploaded before the New Year. I look forward to your traditional New Years video. Sorry, I missed Fuer Head. Happy New Bill to you and your family.
Hey Bill, always great to see a video from you! I was wondering if you still happened to have the old Volvo 240? I just hit 330k miles in my 92 240 (although the odometer had been broken for a while, I suppose it is probably around 250k.) Luckily we don't have many rusted out cars here, so they just last forever.
A very happy new year to you and your family. It looks like you guys are getting as much snow in IL as we are here in NH. In fact that dusting you have beats us. We don't have anything. Being a hater of winter weather I hope it stays that way. I doubt it will as winter has just begun. I hope you can find some more time for CZcams in the coming year but I'll be happy with whatever you can do.
Weather doesn't look chilly over there to me unusually, which the same applies to many other states from what I heard. Guess the new year's cold starts will be more lenient than the previous years
HOLY COW, I haven't watched you in a hot min! Wow TKK got hitched! Awww, congrats to him and to you getting a new Sister In Law! HNY even though i'm writing this on 2/9/2024 lol.
Happy new year from 🇫🇮. This time I actually did the same exact thing, went outside to see if any of the neighbors had any fireworks and one did so it wasn’t a total loss. It was crispy -20C (-4F) so maybe that was the reason why nobody was out. And I guess this was more fun when I was a kid. 😅
@@uxwbill I'm 57 and I enjoyed the music you played. I don't remember posting anything that would constitute calling me a jerk, but if I did I apologize.
@@jamesdye4603 I wasn't calling you a jerk. Unfortunately, there were people who came along and did nothing but cause trouble. That is what I tired of. Over the years, people from every age group have watched my videos. The "Internet Twelve Year Old" thing refers to likely well meaning younger folks who didn't seem to understand that I wasn't hosting some kind of technical support/discussion show. Information Technology is my day job, and I'd just as soon be done with it when I get home.
Well, I guess we have something in common.. I repair small engines and people think I love them so much that I want to work on them in my off hours. I don't.@@uxwbill
They don't drive the van very much. Yes, the Keykeeper still has his Grand Marquis. It has run to over 250,000 miles. He bought another one -- a 2003 model year -- with far fewer miles on it. It's much more nicely equipped than the 2010.
I haven't the foggiest what you're talking about. I ask that people celebrate responsibly because impaired driving is such a preventable tragedy. I've not been impacted by it, but that's immaterial. Far too many people have been. There are four of us brothers and we're all still here. College153 lives in North Carolina and Furhead in Missouri.
It's the GMC version, whatever they happen to call it. My father thought it was something worthwhile to buy. I don't care for crossovers in the slightest -- they all share the same stupid looking design -- and I absolutely refuse to ride in it.
@@uxwbill I'm not a big fan of them either. At this point the only "SUV" I'd consider buying is a 4Runner. Though the Bronco has certainly piqued my interest. Though Fords track record with reliability over the past decade gives me pause. I prefer sedans which none of the automakers seems to have much of an interest in making anymore.
When next you decide to comment, ask yourself: "Am I adding anything to the discussion?" Pripyat is also likely rather more exciting right now and for the past year or so than you're giving it credit for.
@@uxwbillBill, why do you go on the defensive? You were literally the only people on the street, and not so much as a firecracker went off. By definition, amazingly dull
@@abdelkaderelbachir3817 People do things like going on vacations, going out somewhere or even sleeping through the new year. I have definitely slept through a few of them.
Don't assume I haven't. No doubt it's a major tragedy. I am unsure what you'd have me do about it. I certainly can't go there and tell them to knock it off.
Some of my brothers probably do that. I don't. It doesn't interest me. As for "portrait mode" ... do the world a favor and turn your phone on its side to shoot videos. Why nobody has ever had the brains to design an image sensor that records "properly" (i.e. landscape mode at all times) is unknown to me. Why CZcams encourages such with "shorts" as opposed to bringing some dirt to put that portrait video nonsense out is unknown to me. Yes, I have an opinion on this. What gave it away? 😛
@@uxwbillI could also care less about portrait video, unless the subject I happen to be shooting at is taller than it is wide. Portrait stills is a different matter for me so long as I have a decent size imager (ideally APS-C) and a 50mm F1.(#) or at least a zoom lens, and isn't plagued by the computational photography of today's modern devices that smears the whole image with their noise reduction at high ISO. Thankfully I have just the device - now I just need a decent prime lens and I'm set. Once I'm not broke, that is. I've also tried uploading to shorts a handful of times, but I also found no real sense to it. If I'm going to be uploading a short (
Happy new year once again bill and family, may 2024 be a great year for you all
Nice to see everyone is happy and healthy! The New Years ring in with Bill is becoming a yearly tradition...
Happy new year Bill!! To you and all of the family! Hope you can do some more videos this year. Miss hearing your snarky commentary. I know life gets busy, but if you have time please post as often as you can. I miss UXWBILL studios fine quality content.
Here's to Walsh Motors
Keykeeper sure looks different nowadays than how he did 10 years ago. Barely even recognized him, looks like a completely different person!
Thank you for continuing a tradition, and happy new year!
Glad that one's over. Cheers to 2024!
Have been watching this every year since 2013! I always look forward to this video!
Happy New Year, Bill and bunch. May 2024 be a dang good one for all.

Boy you can really hear that DV tape motor whirring away with how quiet the outside is, lol!
Was just about to mention that lol. That sound is almost comforting. Reminds me of the early days of CZcams.

Hey william im thinking of getting a camcorder particularly sony which model would you recommend i would like best quality and bells and whistles

Yes. Turns out the problem with it is a bad camshaft. One of the lobes is just gone. Surprising.

You only do a video every New Year Bill lets have more TEC stuff !!!!!!Happy New Year all your family
To the contrary -- I made about ten videos this year about various things.
I see that your mother now has a Lincoln MKZ what happened to Ruby the Buick?
She has had that car for several years now. Ruby the Buick was fast getting to be worn out.

Amazingly dull. I think there's more activity in Pripyat, at New Years.

Sometimes they celebrate, sometimes they don't. Maybe some are on vacation? I don't know. I've certainly slept through a few.

That's so depressing
Elaborate.
