As the end of the year is quickly approaching, I like to look back at what I have accomplished for the year and what new things I will strive to complete in 2010. Some people like to make a New Year’s resolution. I personally think that this is great, but limiting. Most people will set one goal for the year and probably abandon that resolution within a few months. Typically these resolutions center around weight loss which is fine and the local gyms like to prey on these individuals.

If this doesn’t make you feel small, I’m not sure what will.

Yes its true. It takes an act of congress to get the ad guys play nice with the consumer. Pretty freaking sad if you ask me, but I won’t complain if it passes.

Well done, well done indeed!

Merry Christmas!

Yes, I’m going there. But not for the reasons that you might expect. I’m not going to make this a right vs left, red vs blue, or bears vs packers issue.

I’m going about this from a bit of experience in the not so distant past. My wife and I had been traveling in another state and unfortunately had to take a trip to the emergency room. It was early in the morning when she fell ill. Its happened before and we basically run down to the ER, she gets an IV and we’re good to go in a few hours. We had narrowed down the condition but at 3 in the morning, neither one of us could remember what the heck it was. Its noted in her medical file back here in Des Moines.
