W. H. Auden (pictured) once said that "the only way to spend New Year's Eve is either quietly with friends or in a brothel." Although the new plot is somewhat in keeping with the man's colorful life (with the opening line 'Stop all the clocks,') it's entirely in accordance with the man's vibrant life.
