Twins Born in Different Years

What with dead birds, dead fish, and more dead birds, 2011 doesn't appear to be off to an auspicious start. But I found this amusing: a pair of twins were delivered near Chicago by Caesarian section, one in the last minute of 2010, the other in the first minute of 2011.

The twins' father, Brandon Lewis, said one of the doctors was counting the minutes down before the births, adding that it was "definitely the best" new year's countdown he had ever experienced.
